  1. SEATSNHTSA 22V375000May 26, 2022

    General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2022 GMC Canyon and Chevrolet Colorado vehicles equipped with a manual passenger seat. The front passenger seat may have a hook attachment that was not properly welded, allowing it to separate from the inboard track of the seat frame.

    Consequence: An improperly welded seat frame may not properly restrain the seat occupant, increasing the risk of injury in a crash.

    Remedy

    Dealers will inspect the front passenger seat and replace the cushion frame, if necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 6, 2022. Owners may contact GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782 or Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is N222368320.

Reliability verdict for the 2022 Chevrolet Colorado

With an 83/100 score against a 63/100 segment average, the 2022 Chevrolet Colorado rates above average for reliability. The gap suggests fewer or less frequent owner-reported problems than typical for the class, translating to a generally controlled ownership profile rather than a model that trends toward persistent defects.

Complaints are not evenly spread. They cluster most heavily around steering and the electrical system, with a smaller tail of reports across brakes, structure, and uncategorized items. That pattern points to a couple of higher-attention systems rather than broad vehicle-wide instability. Recall activity is limited, which supports the view that large-scale corrective actions have been uncommon.

Overall risk level: moderate-to-low for the segment, with localized exposure in steering and electrical areas.
