Own a 2006 Chevy Corvette. Electrical problems started after 5 months of owning it and have continued to date. It has been at the dealership more then at our home.

Car would not start after setting 4 days in my garage. Charged the battery and car would not start after two days setting in my garage. Charged the battery again and car would not start after setting two days in my garage. GM had installed a new battery just 400 miles ago. Appears to be excessive battery drain. Took it in to dealer and they replaced a module in the driver side door. Went to pick up the car and when I tried to start the car, the battery was dead again. Dealer installed another new battery. Have not had a chance to use the car (2006 Z06) since the dealership visit January 18, 2007, due to winter weather conditions.

2006 Chevy convertible Corvette (my birthday present to myself) has failed to crank on three different occasions from May 06 through Oct 06. The first and second time within a month. Vehicle had to be towed to closet dealership on each occasion. Dealership has been unable to determine cause of problem. Feel uncomfortable in going out of town - don't trust vehicle not to crank.
