Consumer Description

I OWN A 2013 CHEVY AVALANCHE. I HAVE REPLACED ALL 4 CHROME DOOR HANDLES DUE TO THEM PULLING AWAY FROM THE DOOR WHERE THEY ATTACH AT THE REAR PORTION.. THIS IS A KNOWN AND WELL DOCUMENTED PROBLEM WITH THE BODY STYLE. TODAY I HAD TO PAY TO REPLACE THE DRIVERS DOOR HANDLE FOR THE 2ND TIME SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE. I HAVE NOW REPLACED 3 UNDER WARRANTY AND HAD TO PAY FOR THE OTHER TWO. I AM SURE THAT THIS WILL CONTINUE TO HAPPEN OVER THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE AND I DON'T FEEL I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY EVERY TIME AN OBVIOUS MANUFACTURERS DEFECT OCCURS.
