Bad Starter

[NE18]

Has your starter failed? Mine did last week at 21,500 miles. The interesting part is the dealer said the part was on back order and had to put a special priority on the part to get one in.

Yep 14 Sierra 6.2 mine failed at about 37k bought mine off ebay from a new truck that was totaled. Mine was fried where the wire attaches to it. Completely burnt

Were there any symptoms before it died?  Mine turns over oddly every now and then. Battery checked out OK.

Just had mine replaced a few weeks ago under warranty. It took them awhile to get the part because of the recent strike up here and a parts issue.

Nothing prior. Turn the key and the dash lights up however nothing happens. Got the new starter in last Saturday and guess what happened last night!? Truck was towed with the same issue. Father in law said he heard a loud click when I tried starting it. The worst part was the truck was loaded with furniture. GM roadside wanted to tow the truck 29 miles to a Chevy dealer in different state when there’s a Chevy dealership 0.5 miles down the road. I told GM no.

The dealer called me today and told me the truck should go back to the first dealer who changed out the starter a week ago. Welcome to the Chevy family.
