Keyless Entry Remote

I only have 4500 miles on my suburban and the keyless entry tranmitter is working fine but, the white printed logos on the buttons are wearing off.
 
Do you think this is a defect and if so, would they cover this under the warranty?

GM will cover it, although some service departments are bound to make it difficult on you if you ask.

For me it falls under the "no big deal" category due to the fact that I have the buttons memorized and don't pull my key-fob out for show and tell very often.

Wow, shocking. I thought it wouldn't be covered and I would save myself the embarrassment of even asking... I'M glad I asked here though...

I am surprised also, I would put that in the normal wear and tear category (windshield wiper and tires)

Me too.  Sometimes my FOB is still in my pocket when I press the button becasue I am so used to it now.

Just wish they had kept putting the numbers on the back. 
 
Sometimes when I'm cleaning and bending down, something in my pocket decides to press one of the buttons on its own. 

The reason that they no longer number the back (1&2) is that now eight (8) transmitters can be programmed to your system.

ZX, makes sense but the first two being numbered would help greatly for the vast majority of owners.
 
Just feedback from end user.

I don't think the #1 and #2 on the back of the remote is a big deal at all.
 
I do 98% of the driving of the suburban and I know what keys are mine, and my wife knows what keys are hers. This is the same for the camry although my wife drives that 98% of the time.

Same here but I've seen (&answered some) a lot of posts where the folks have figured it out yet.

 That happens to me alot! Worse thing is that I always manage to accidently push the horn button (why is the range of the transmitter greatly increased when it is in your pocket and the horn button is mistakenly pushed?)
