Vehicle idles very low to the point of almost dying when stopped in a parking lot or coming to a red light/stop sign. Had died once when coming to a stop sign. I keep reporting the same issue, but nothing is being done. I'm told this in "normal" or "can't duplicate the complaint"
Vehicle idles very low to the point of almost dying when stopped in a parking lot or coming to a red light/stop sign. Had died once when coming to a stop sign.
Bought a 2016 model and was initially happy with the truck. Now when I'm at a stop light, the engine sounds like it will stall if I don't add gas. I had this same issue with my previous car, Dodge Caliber. I didn't take it the dealership for the same reason as stated by other comments. The short solution to this issue, is to shift the vehicle to neutral until I'm ready to move forward. It's a pain but there is no stall and RPM stays at an acceptable level. Unless there is a recall for this issue, I doubt this issue can be solved at the dealership with a minor repair that won't leave you in the poor house.
I was having issues with a rough idle and on a couple of drives the engine almost dying going around corners. I was able to fix this problem with installing an aftermarket K&N High Flow Intake and a Hypertech Max Energy 2.0 Programmer. The programmer allowed me to adjust the RPMS and adjust shift timing so the truck doesn't have that stutter and stall while taking corners or while sitting at a stop light. Not only did it fix the stalling issues, I also gained over 6 miles per gallon better on the freeway.

JUST WANT MY TRUCK FIXED AND CHEVROLET DOESN'T KNOW WHEN THE PROBLEM WILL BE FIXED.
Vehicle also has stalled several times at red lights and has a rough idle most of the time like it wants to stall. Been in the dealers shop numerous times for same thing and they say if there's no code they can't fix. I also advised Chevy consumer service and got a case number but still doing it and no one knows how to fix it. Anybody got anything on this issue, other than you should not have bought a chevy?
They should really fix this issue. The car is giving a coughing sensation and then stalls. That should not happen in a brand new car, either fix it or give me a new one.
I've had this 2016 Colorado since September 2015 so roughly a year and a quarter. This is the third time my truck stalled in the last 2 months. Each time it has stalled, it's been within a few minutes of my house. I'll be sitting at a stoplight and my truck starts shaking and attempts to stall. Truly, I think my truck has tried to do this 4-5 times, but I've been able to stop it a few times now. I started realizing if I let off the brake and let my truck get a little gas (just by letting off the brake) then it stops it from shaking and eventually shutting off. In my years, I've had an Audi A4 (1999) and a Subaru Outback (2001). The Audi never stalled, but the Outback stalled occasionally before selling it. With a truck being only a year+ old, I'm really nervous. They never could figure out what was wrong with the Subaru (because like this there is no error code) and I really enjoy this truck.... WAY disappointing.
My girl was pulling into the driveway coasting then when she was braking to slow down the truck completely died. She put it in park and it cranked back up and she finished pulling into the driveway. I've been watching the rpm's while she and I were driving today and I noticed at times when slowing down to come to a stop the rpms would drop to almost 400ish at times which is not good. Shouldn't there be a minimum rpm kept while the vehicle is running? Going to call the dealership tomorrow to get there input on this.
engine stalls at slow turn- as from a rolling stop or a dead stop and slow acceleration (Low RPM low mph) dealer can't find problem - 8 times it has died and was almost rear ended. 3 times to dealer no luck, they can not duplicate the problem but say it is safe to drive - don't think so. Unless they can fix it I see some real problems, especially if it results in an accident
I was driving my infant son to day care this morning. Heading down a hill going about 20 mph and coming to a stop sign. I slowed to about 2-3 mph and then tried to roll the stop sign. I noticed the screen had popped up for "Hill Start Assist" even though I was still moving. I tried to go again and the the engine had died. Just flat out died, the car "dinged" once and I'm not really sure why. Luckily I had a little momentum and had passed the steep part of the hill. Had to pull over at the corner and restart the truck.
I took the truck home and hooked up my OBDII reader and got no codes.
I had more faith in my 94 Ford Ranger that I got rid of last year than I do in this truck.

Just sitting in a grocery store parking lot, starts running rough and stalls out. It also has done it in the past sitting at a red light.
