This car has become an absolute headache. I traded in an 8 year old Chevy Colorado ZR2 that had never been in the shop besides an oil change.
1st - Day after I bought it CEL brought it in that morning light was still on when they read it and it was showing nothing. Cleared it and sent me home. (Said maybe it was A/F ratio due to sitting on lot).
2nd - front parking sensors stopped working. They said they must've not been fully plugged in and wiggled free from driving.
3rd - Bluetooth and Android auto stopped working completely. Service techs said they just restarted the car a bunch until it worked again. Otherwise nothing they could find was broken.
4th - Got in it this morning was looking at features, I put it in RWD and a bunch of warning lights came on and CEL was the only one that stayed on. They are diagnosing it now.
I'm only at 770 miles F'ing nightmare

The Apple car play often does not connect for me and I have heard others complain as well. I am holding out for a patch to fix it. For the RWD issue mine did the same thing and in the long run I had to get a new transmission. SO sending good vibes your way you don't have to deal with that.

Just left the dealership. Light was on when the service writer got into it, but turned off by the time the tech got the car. Log history showed a communication fault with the AWD system. I put it into RWD before leaving the dealership and everything worked appropriately. Hopefully this is the last problem with this thing.
