It takes a while to click over before vehicle will start. Took to dealer, they said wires were really bad, and corroded. Dealer rebuilt starter. Currently, consumer feels the problem may be reoccurring because of the amount of time it takes before starter will click in.

I never received any recall notification for alternator/ regulator/starter that I was suppose to have received sometimes in 1997. Should the dealership do it now and pay for the money I spent to fix the alternator/regulator/ starter?
