The Chevy Colorado ignition switch recall was due to the switch failing to engage the starter, which is located under the intake manifold near the top of the engine. The starter is a small motor that is responsible for turning over the main engine of the car, initiating the combustion process and starting the engine. A faulty starter can result in the car not starting and potentially producing a clicking noise when you try to start it. If you need to replace the starter, you can anticipate spending an average of $300 to $500, with parts costing around $300 and labor around $200. If you opt to remove and replace the starter yourself, it may take approximately an hour and a half, and you will need a wrench for the job.
