| 2004 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM | TL*THE CONTACT OWNS 2004 CHEVROLET AVALANCHE. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 55 MPH WHEN THE RPMS INCREASED. THE CONTACT HAD DIFFICULTY SWITCHING GEARS AND THE VEHICLE LOST POWER. THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WOULD NOT SHUT OFF UNLESS THE CONTACT RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. THE TRANSMISSION AND THE WATER PUMP FAILED COMPLETELY. THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR HANDLE BROKE AND THE CONTACT CANNOT GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE UNLESS SHE CLIMBS OVER THE PASSENGER SEAT. THE SPEEDOMETER ONLY DISPLAYED 10 AND 20 MPH WHENEVER IT WAS COLD OUTSIDE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 23,965 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 97,323. |
| 2002 | VISIBILITY:GLASS, SIDE/REAR | THE WINDOWS ON MY 2002 CHEVOLET AVALANCHE ARE VERY DARK SHADED. I CALLED A DEALER IN MULLINS, SC AND HE TOLD ME THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO TO LIGHTEN THEM. HE CLAIMED THEY CAME FROM THE FACTORY THAT DARK. AT NIGHT I CANNOT SEE WELL ENOUGH TO PROPERLY JUDGE TRAFFIC AND DISTANCE. WHEN I TURN AT NIGHT I HAVE TO LEAN FORWARD JUST TO SEE THE STREET I AM TURNING ON TO. I'D LIKE TO FIND OUT HOW I CAN GET A LIGHTER SHADING ON MY WINDOWS BEFORE I HAVE OR CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. WHY CAN'T THEY BE LIGHTED OR TONED DOWN. *AK |
