2005 Avalanche - Transmission Destroyed (The Email I sent GM Cust Serv)
Written by: oknation on Feb 2, 2012 6:13:00 PM
I called GM Customer Service when I got home to notify them what had happened. I talked with a lady named Francis. She didn't have any suggestions, but just asked if I was towing something at the time and other questions to which the answer was no.

I previously owned a 2004 Avalanche Custom (long story), but now own a 2005 Avalanche with standard tonneau and textured plastic panels (non-cladded). They were fading something fierce.

The information can be found at the link below: Fading black panels I had this done to my Avalanche and it looks like a brand new Avy now! ... Read More
