2010 Chevy traverse trouble starting

Asked by Lori Nov 07, 2017 at 07:58 PM about the 2010 Chevrolet Traverse LTZ FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My vehicle was just in 11/6 for replacement of the battery
and is still intermittently slow to start. I turn the key and
sometimes it starts right up, but today it tried starting,
stopped, tried again and nothing. I turned the key off and
then on again and it went through the firing process slowly.
I got to my next destination and started it again and it was
fine. Ignition switch or relay? Any idea on the cost?
Dealership wants to charge $70 to diagnose on top of any
charges to fix... Any thoughts?

2009-2010 GM Service Bulletins: Acadia, Enclave, OUTLOOK, Traverse - EI09060 - Engine no crank/no start due to discharged battery/parasitic current draw do this----Reprogram the IPC or heated seat module Dont do this----Do not replace the battery ref # 09-06-03-002F Intermittent Battery Draw Some customers may comment on an intermittent battery draw concern. This applies only to vehicles with a navigation radio and rear park assist. The radio may stay powered up if the rear park assist alarm is going off when very close to an object (continuous chime) and the ignition key is turned off before the chime cycle completes. This happens due to a software anomaly in handling the chime. Even when the conditions are right, this is an intermittent concern, and is hard to duplicate. Two different bulletins have been released to address this condition, depending on model and year. PIT4770 applies to 2007-08 Acadia and Outlook U3R UZR and 2008 Enclave U3R UZR with navigation radio and rear park assist. For these vehicles, engineering is aware of this concern and is working on a software fix. Information will be updated when a fix becomes available. PIT4771A applies to 2009 Enclave, Lucerne, Traverse, Acadia and Outlook with navigation radio and rear park assist. For these vehicles, reprogram the navigation radio with the latest calibrations in TIS. Under the operating system there is a calibration titled "New software to correct continuous chime and potential battery run-down condition".
