NHTSA Complaint #10587090 — 2007 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN

THE VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY EXHIBITS A DEAD BATTERY. THIS HAPPENS REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN FOR HUNDREDS OF MILES OR NONE AT ALL. AT SEEMINGLY RANDOM TIMES, WE GO TO START THE VEHICLE AND THE BATTERY IS DEAD. WE HAVE HAD THE BATTERY, ALTERNATOR AND CABLES TESTED. ALL TESTED GOOD. WE ALSO NOTICE THAT AROUND THE SAME TIME THIS PROBLEM STARTED OCCURRING, THAT ENGINE NOISE COULD BE HEARD THROUGH THE VEHICLE SPEAKERS REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE STEREO IS ON. THIS ALSO OCCURS AT INTERMITTENT INTERVALS. WE HAVE TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CANNOT REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM IN SHOP IN ORDER TO TROUBLESHOOT. PARASITIC DRAW TEST IS NEGATIVE DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT AND NOT CONSTANT. *TR
