Consumer Description

ISSUE STARTED AROUND IN EARLY 2007 THAT EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE THE VEHICLE WOULDN'T START ON THE FIRST ATTEMPT. NOW IN 2008 THIS HAPPENS MORE FREQUENTLY. WHEN I GO TO START THE CAR IT SOUNDS LIKE IT TRIES TO START THEN THE ENGINE LIGHT LETS ME KNOW I DID NOT CRANK THE CAR. OCCURS MORE SO AFTER I HAVE HAD TO RUN ERRANDS AND START THE CAR A NUMBER AMOUNT OF TIMES IN A SHORTER PERIOD OF TIME. I HAVE TAKEN TO THE GM DEALER AND HAVE HAD IT CHECKED A NUMBER OF TIME. THEY HAVE CLEANED THE INJECTORS, REFLASHED THE COMPUTER, AND UPDATED THE COMPUTER TO THE LATEST LEVELS. THE ANSWER IS ALWAYS THE SAME NO CODES GENERATED NO PROBLEM FOUND. *TR
