Consumer Description

COLORADO HAS A GREAT DEAL OF HESITATION AT LOW SPEED WHEN ACCELERATION IS APPLIED. VEHICLE LURCHES, SHRUGS, SPARK KNOCKS, HAS DELAYED THROTTLE RESPONSE....SEEMS TO "CHUG" UNTIL A HEAVY THROTTLE IS APPLIED, THEN THE VEHICLE "JUMPS" TO A GEAR/RPM. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE NORMALLY AND "GET OUT OF THE WAY" OF OTHER TRAFFIC OR JUST CLIMB A SLIGHT INCLINE. CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP SAYS THIS IS "NORMAL". THIS MAY BE NORMAL FOR CHEVROLET, BUT IT CERTAINLY IS NOT ACCEPTABLE FOR THE CONSUMER THAT WANTS A RESPONSIVE THROTTLE WHEN ACCELERATION IS REQUIRED...... THIS HAS BEEN AN ON-GOING ISSUE WITH THE TRUCK SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED NEW IN APRIL 2015.
