Hello everyone I really need help too figure out what’s wrong with my car. I have a 2014 Chevy Malibu LT 2.5L it has an issue where the stop/start kicks in when I sometimes stop it shakes most of the the time but every one In awhile the stop/start kicks in but won’t turn the car back on. After it turns off completely I try cranking the car back on but it just struggles to turn over I would have to press the gas to give it power too turn on. The Malibu has 120k currently I bought with 89k miles I don’t think the previous owner changed the spark plugs but I also think it might be the starter. Please help

Make sure you use ACDelco solenoids. The cheap aftermarket ones fail quickly and sometimes never fix the problem at all.

If you can't figure out the start/stop issue, there is a company called Trifecta Performance that will eliminate the start/stop system for around $100.
