Owner's description
Check engine light appeared when starting vehicle. Code read by local auto parts store. Thermostat failed at less than 50k miles, causing fan to run constantly and for an extended period time after turning engine off, despite outside temperature. Causes potential for overheating due to not reading temperature. Thermostats are rated to last 100k miles. Is not covered under Chevrolet's 5 years/100k miles powertrain warranty. Upon research, this has been an extremely common issue for Colorado trucks for many years and has not been addressed by Chevrolet. Many blogs are available online. This vehicle was a certified vehicle bought just over 1 years ago and would not be fixed by any warranty according to the dealership purchased from (Bob Fisher).
