Tahoe 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 38,000 miles
Vehicle has a no start condition which will persist for 1 to 4 hours.vehicle will start and then immediately die. It appears to have something to do with humidity or damp weather. Several repair shops have ran diagnostics and reveal a theft deterrent code which comes up on computer. The vehicle has been in for repairs at least 10 times to different shops for the same problem with no results. It is currently at the shop and has been there for over two weeks. This problem has occurred at least 30 times in the last 3 years.my towing insurance is rising and my patience is thin. I am at wits end, help please.
