“The linear position of doors are irregular,the front fender is beyond usual meet. The plastic structure of the back is not in alignment with the body.the rear-view mirror vibrates which is a hazard at night, anyone can mistake the flickering as the cars changing lanes when not the case. Since the doors are not properly aligned the wind,dirt and mist of water, bypasses the weather strip. There is overspray on black exterior paint. Since it was up on a ramp the dealer said the only way I could see the inside or test drive was if I got pre-qualified ,that ended up been my sales contract! …”

“Car stalled unexpectedly on freeway exit for no apparent reason with loss of power steering and all functions. Had to coast to a stop and luckily no other cars were behind us.

Wasn't covered by recall.”

“This vehicle has had oil consumption problems since purchased. It runs out of oil 1500 miles after an oil change. Several consumer complaints have proved this is a very common problem and suggested reporting it to the epa. My truck now needs a new engine because of this common defect with the afm and bad lifters in the 2007 Chevrolet avalanches. It is completely abnormal for an engine to burn this much oil into the environment. Not to mention the consumers who are now being forced to replace engines due to this problem. It needs to be fixed.”

“The contact owns a 2007 Chevrolet AVALANCHE 1500. The contact stated that while parked, the vehicle would not start and the engine warning light continued to illuminate in the process.

The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.”
