No Crank / No start

Check applicable fuse tangs for tarnish , clean them up and re install

Starter motors get a lot of work, or abuse, in stop-start systems. Overwork can lead to carboned up contacts outside the starter or inside at the rotor/brushes where you get dead spots. Try starting while someone whacks the starter with a hammer handle. If it's the starter, that usually jolts it enough to get off a burned spot..... As you had recall work done, you ight go to the dealer and try blaming this on that work.

Thank you beatupchevy. After reading your message I did go through about 15 fuse and cleaned the tangs, I am amazed how much oxidation there was. I tested all the. fuses as well. They were all good. I also cleaned ground connection of the negative battery terminal to the chassis of the car. Unfortunately, the car still needs a dozen or so attempts to start it most of the time. Today I had a mechanic listen to it. He says he hears clicking sound from the solenoid and that this sounds like starter issue. I listened while he was trying to start the car and I think I heard the clicking sound as well. he wants me to bring in the car to his shop for further testing. I will do it in the coming days. I am puzzled though why a bad starter can start the car at times. Should it not always fail?

thank you all who responded. It was the starter. Replacing it solved the problem.
