NHTSA Complaint #11403472 — 2018 CHEVROLET COLORADO

DUEL DRINK (COFFEE) CUP HOLDERS NEXT TO SHIFTER LEAK FROM ANY DRIP OR SPILL. IT IS NOT DESIGNED TO CONTAIN ANY SMALL OR INSIGNIFICANT SPILL OR DRIP. ANY LIQUID LEAKS DOWN DIRECTLY UPON SENSITIVE EXPOSED ELECTRICAL DIP SWITCHES NEEDED TO SHIFT THE TRUCK. THIS INCLUDES THE RUBBER RESERVOIR (DOES NOT HOLD WATER AND DIRECTS LIQUIDS THROUGH KNOBBIES TO UNDERSIDE) AND THE HARD PLASTIC CONTAINER (HARD PLASTIC COMPARTMENT HAS DRAINAGE HOLES THAT LEAD DIRECTLY TO TOP OF ELECTRICAL SWITCHES) IS DESIGNED LIKE A STRAINER. REPLACING ELECTRICAL SWITCHES COST ME $632. I CANNOT USE THE BEVERAGE HOLDERS AS I INFERRED THAT THEY WERE DESIGNED TO USE, TO NOT ONLY HOLD MY BEVERAGE IN PLACE BUT CONTAIN IT FROM LEAKING ABOVE ANY SENSITIVE EXPOSED ELECTRICAL SWITCHES. I UNDERSTAND THE SAME DESIGN IS IN THE CHEVY EQUINOX THIS YEAR. GOOD LUCK.
