We feel that fire doesn't correspond with our projected image and that "thermal incident" aligns with our dynamic, vertically aligned strategy of providing solutions to new challenges,( Will all employees please refer to problems as "challenges", we feel this is closer to our core values.) to deliver customer satisfaction.

A fire is now a 'thermal incident'. Love it, so a flood is a 'dihydrogen oxide incident', a car crash is a 'dynamic metal spatial coincidence incident', a buirglary is a 'unauthorised chattel removal incident', and a shooting is a 'high-speed lead bio-intrusion incident'.

I did not see that post and I would not have been looking there for "Hot Stuff" This post was put on so that Colorado owners would see it if they have not been in formed.

I got ours looked at this morning. A big beat up ???.
I wasn't happy when I first read about the recall but took it in to local Holden Dealership and all fixed in 2 mins. ;D

Quite the beat up.  Caused by shorting of the battery cable. Big deal.

We picked ours up in April 2013 and the recall is from September 2013 , so I think we are all good.  :cheers:

Thanks for the heads up, had already seen it and wife had already rung.

Don't have parts yet but they will call once they do.

Thanks
