Yes, that is symptomatic of a defective hood latch… it took me 3 months to resolve with multiple visits to the Chevrolet dealer.
Finally resolved when I was able to walk back into the service area and talk with the most experienced service tech who was working on it. He was finally able to recreate it by repeatedly opening and closing the hood latch
in my case, not only did remote start not work, was getting false MIL on dash to service ESC, FWD and others. None showed the hood latch was open
Turned out the micro switch in the hood latch was flaky, but not fully broken. It apparently was not showing the 2k resistance which told the anti theft someone was trying to open the hood when the doors were locked. If all the codes were reset, it might work for a bit and then crap out again.
Have not had a problem since the hood latch was replaced. I took the old latch to experiment with when I have time and nothing better to do.
The service manager finally admitted they had replaced a handful of hood latches before mine…
