Description of the problem	I have a 2008 chevy avalanche ,the truck has been having a lot of electrical problems. For the past month the truck will flicker when i drive but it is un constant. At first i though it was a battery issue so i took it to autozone and they checked the battery and said the battery is fine its a electrical problem in the truck. I did some research and all the reviews and that the avalanche did have a recall on there electrical isuess. So i called a local chevy dealer and told them about the problem and how it might have a recall on the electrical system and they said no. So i was driving yesterday on the highway and my truck started to flicker and them turn off completely and locked up on me. I could of been in a wreak but thankfully the highway was not busy and i stop on the highyway. I then tried to turn the truck on and showed no life at all in the truck. I kept trying till finnay it turned on. So i could of died because of the electrical problem with chevy. I would like yaw to look into this because this could be a big lawsuite and all i want is my truck to work fine, thank you.
