What owners wrote

I was involved in a rear impact crash due to the brake lights failing to illuminate. I had the brake lamps switch of my 2007 chevrolet colorado extended cab replaced per the manufacturer recall that was issued in 2010. However, the replacement that the dealership installed failed, causing the driver behind me to be unaware of my intention to stop, which caused that driver to crash in to the rear end of my vehicle. This issue was supposed to be corrected by the recall, but GM is obviously still using faulty parts.

Reported at 87,697 miles, September 2012 Crash

Vehicle was taken in to replace recalled brake light switch. However, there still is no brake lights. All fuses have been checked. This is widespread known problem that should not fall on the owner to pay hundreds to the dealership just to diagnose the problem.

Reported at 150,000 miles, April 2017
