Possible error in the Chicago Style Author-Date?

Pixm79
Hi, I should need some help with a problem I am experiencing with the Chicago Style 18th ed. Author-Date.
According to the stylesheet, when quoting from multivolume works the citation should be (Author Year, volume number:page number), ex (Hazlitt 1967, 3:345).

Using Zotero I can only produce citations where "vol." is always present, i.e (Hazlitt 1967, vol. 3:345).

Is there a way to avoid this?
Thanks.

    A composite volume and page locator such as 3:345 should be entered as a page locator rather than as a volume locator. This should not have changed with the revised styles.

    Previously, the Chicago author–date styles were incorrectly including a volume reference in the bibliographical data within the in-text citation. This bug has now been fixed. See the models in CMOS 14.21:
    Armstrong, Tenisha, ed. 2014. To Save the Soul of America, January 1961–August 1962. Vol. 7 of The Papers of Martin Luther King, Jr., edited by Clayborne Carson. University of California Press, 1992–.

    (Armstrong 2014, 85)
    The citation that the styles gave in this situation previously (Armstrong 2014, 7:85) was redundant because Armstrong 2014 already refers specifically to volume 7.

    The volume reference is only needed if the item in the reference list is a multivolume work as a whole rather than a specific volume (Tillich 1951–63, 1:133): see CMOS 14.43.
