Description of the problem | The rear window molding broke due to unknown reasons leaving sharp jagged edges that my son cut his hands on. After reading in other blogs, this rear window molding separation problem in the chevrolet avalanche is a common wide spread problem. People have had water leak in to their vehicles causing premature and costly rust, mold, and rot problems. This is a design flaw and should be taken care of by general motors.. |
