problem #1

Mar 062006

Avalanche 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 34,569 miles
: the contact stated every time the brake pedal was applied the brakes pulsate. The vehicle was taken to dealer. Upon inspection the front and rear rotors were corroded. The dealer attempted to turn the rotors however; due to the corrosion they were unable to do so, therefore the rotors were replaced. In a separate incident, while using the air conditioner and heater fan, smoke came from the vents. The fan was turned off and the vehicle was taken to the dealer for inspection. The compressor, fan and relay was replaced.
