Throttle body or fuel peddle sticking and engine running roughly, steering is lousy
I was slowing down at an intersection to make a right hand turn. as i made the turn, my engine died. i lost power steering, and my vehicle was extremely difficult to control. i nearly hit another car. my engine restarted immediately after i placed the truck in park. the next day, my truck died again while slowing to enter an intersection. i immediately took it to a mechanic, who replaced the throttle body. on the way home, it died while make a right hand turn. this appears to be a common failing with the chevrolet colorado, and is very dangerous as it causes a loss of power steering. *tr
I am the owner of the chevy colorado ( 10237336 ) a correction needs to be made on the report you have listed. the problem has happened several times ( at least 20 ) not once, the problem started at 12 k miles and continues. also, the abs failed at 20 k miles, the fan clutch burnt up, the a/c quit, all the wiring was burned, the list goes on. i still have 100 miles left on my warranty.... any suggestions ? *tr
