Consumer Description

VEHICLE RAN FINE ENTIRE DAY(12-20-2013), I PARKED TO SHOP WITH MY WIFE AT A LOCAL MALL. WHEN WE WERE READY TO LEAVE THE VEHICLE WOULD TURN OVER AND THEN IMMEDIATELY SHUT OFF. THIS HAPPENED AT LEAST 10 TIMES, MY BATTERY WAS BEGINNING TO DRAIN SO I STOPPED. MY WIFE AND I DECIDED TO CONTINUE OUR SHOPPING AND COME BACK TO VEHICLE LATER. ONCE AGAIN I STARTED THE VEHICLE AND IT IMMEDIATELY SHUT OFF. I HAD TO CALL A TOWING SERVICE (AAA) TO TOW US TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP. THE NEXT DAY I WAS TOLD THE VEHICLE STARTED FINE AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEM. THE MECHANIC DID TELL US THAT THE VEHICLE HAD PREVIOUS ERROR CODES FROM LAST NIGHT POINTING TO IGNITION AND STARTER UNITS, BUT THEY FOUND NO PROBLEMS. I HAVE RECEIVED NUMEROUS RECALL NOTICES FROM GM DESCRIBING THIS VERY THING AND HAVE REQUESTED A FULL REFUND OF MY TOWING FEES ($95.00 INVOICE#73066) AND TRYING TO SET UP MY REPAIR SINCE THE RECALL NOTICES WENT OUT IN APRIL 2014. I HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING SINCE. GM CASE # [XXX] OPERATOR (JIM). INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) *JS
