Silverado LS 5.3L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 90,000 miles

Around 90,000 miles I had to crank the truck twice to start it, and now nearly a year later I still have to crank it twice... EVERYTIME. I have replaced batteries, cables and got the fuel system checked to no avail. I just have to deal with it and it is annoying and at times embarrassing.

Our truck has had problems starting for 10 years now. We have bought 4 new batteries. The terminals were tightened down many times for a temporary time the truck would start. We were told to buy top battery cables because the side ones have always had problems. We tried a lot better brand of battery. To no avail our truck still has problems starting. They have tried other ways by putting in a new starter. If this is not a recall I don't know why. It has been a huge annoyance.
