This bulletin applies to 2018-2022 Chevy Colorado and 2015-2022 Equinox vehicles.

The ABS/TCS MIL may be on, with DTC C0010,5A stored in the EBCM, with a possible OnStar notification. According to GM, there currently have been no cases of a functional concern regarding this DTC.

If the C0010.5A is the only code stored, clear the code and road test. Advise the customer that this code can be caused by a three-point turn kind of maneuver. If the vehicle is still moving forward and the shifter moved to reverse, this code can be stored. Make sure they come to a complete stop before shifting.
