2008 Chevrolet Avalanche body complaints
Page 3 of 3: complaints 41 to 44 of 44, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Electronic door locks have failed on three of the 4 doors on this car. The neither the key fob or the door mounted locking switch will toggle them between locked and unlocked position. You can hear the actuator trying to work but their is something wrong with the linkage preventing this. This is a major in convenience, as well as a potential safety hazard.
This afternoon while going out shopping I badly cut my finger while opening the door of my vehicle. The door handle of my vehicle is plated in chrome. This chrome is now coming undone, and is razor sharp. I plan on reporting this to the dealer tomorrow, but would also like register my complaint with the federal safety agency.
My 2008 chevy avalanche has a problem with the driver door and the rear door same side not opening or closing with the remote. This could be a safety hazard if I had to get into the vehicle in an emergency because the only door with a key lock is the drivers door.
