A NEW DISTRIBUTOR CAP AND ROTOR HAS BEEN REPLACED 2 TIMES WITHIN A 6 MONTH PERIOD. THE VEHICLE TRIES TO START BUT IT DOESN'T CATCH AND THEN SOUNDS LIKE IT'S TRYING TO BACK FIRE. THE AC COIL IS LEAKING ON TO THE CAP AND PRODUCING MOISTURE WHICH IS WHY IT WILL NOT START OR STALLS AND WILL NOT START BACK UP. GMC SAYS THEY HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH OTHER VEHICLES AND MY MECHANIC SAID THAT THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING UNTIL IT HAPPENS AGAIN. THIS IS MY 3RD GMC VAN AND HAVE NEVER HAD THESE KIND OF PROBLEMS OR I WOULDN'T HAVE PURCHASED THE 2ND ONE. I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED!
