Description of the problem	2008 chevy avalanche. Over a two year period had all 4 door lock solenoids replaced due to failure. When i thought i had doors the doors locked they were not. Cost me about $150 for the first lock--when i raised [xxx] the chevy service manager accommodated the cost of the other three over a period of time--i pointed out when i searched the web is was a major issue, with not just the avalanche but also the tahoe, surburban and silverado. When i ask if the new solenoid was an improved unit the manager said he did not know but the part # did not change---sound familiar??--crazy!!!! As of one month ago i no longer own the avalanche. When i told the service manage there should be a recall, he said they only recall for safety issues---i told him that it looked like a safety issue to me--the owner thinks the doors are locked but one may not be.
