GENERAL MOTORS Starter motor

some GM trucks have issues with heat soak on the starter where the starter actually doesnt work at all when the engine is hot. Let them cool off for a few hours and they fire right up again. Replacing the starter does nothing. Its an engine design flaw

Cons: heat soak issues, doesn't work when hot

GENERAL MOTORS Starter motor

Some GM engines would heat soak the starter when hot, making restarting harder on the starter motor. I believe the LS3 still had that problem, but it was worse in older V8 GM vehicles.

Cons: heat soak when hot, harder restarting

GENERAL MOTORS Starter motor

Mom had an Envoy XUV for 10 years, only issue in that period was the starter, gauge cluster stepper motor, and the divider window motor. I had a Trailblazer SS for four years, would still have it if I hadn't sold it to buy my house, but in that time I did front hubs, steering wheel position sensor and a pass side wheel speed sensor. That was it. ZERO other issues.

Pros: zero other issues
Cons: starter issue, gauge cluster stepper motor issue, divider window motor issue
