CarComplaints.com Notes: It didn't take long for the cladding to fade, discolor, and in some cases crack. Cladding is the protective plastic piece that runs along the outside of vehicles, and exposure to both heat and UV rays give the Avalanche's cladding a chalky, faded appearance.
Owners have said the problem is especially bad on the panels near the cargo bed. Eventually, GM agreed to a one-time treatment of ArmorDillo, a protective treatment similar to what you find in any auto shop. Unfortunately, that would only help for 6 months (on average).
Eventually, GM offered another coating solution for owners within the 3 year / 36,000 mile original warranty under TSB:04-08-111-001C.

Making loud whining noises around tight curves or corners. Took vehicle to dealership with transmission problems for the 2nd time and explained other problems I had noticed in the last 2 weeks. They later told me there was not only a problem with my transmission that there was a problem with my steering column, my key fobs, and my power steering. Dealership fixed the power steering, not sure what the problem really was.
