“Vehicle does not start. It has plenty of battery power. Engine stumbles for a second then starter just spins with no ignition. Had chevy roadside assistance p/u vehicle and it did not start for driver. Vehicle was taken to rk Chevrolet vineland nj where vehicle sat for a day and a half before it was even looked at, and then guess what, it started. Vehicle was returned to me as no trouble found. Now I have to wait until it strands me again and hope it can be looked at in a more timely fashion in hopes they might be able to figure it out. Looking forward to being stranded again.”
