Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I am posting this to help others and get this information on the internet. i own a 2005 avalanche 1500 2/wd with 22000 miles. at about 19000 miles, while driving at night i heard a click the lights in the instrument panel went out. dealer replaced the instrument panel, with in 3 days another click and the lights went out. dealer replaced instrument panel and the next time i drive at night "click" and the lights went out. now my dealer has had my truck in his shop for 7 days and i don't know when i will get it back. for a vehicle to blow 4 instrument panels, which cost $600.00 a piece plus installation, makes me wonder if this might be a common problem and a recall should made so gm would be responsible for repairs. i will also send this to the nhsta. *jb
