Truck was parked, windows up with the key/FOB partially inserted into the ignition. Spare key/FOB was approximately 2 miles away. Mid afternoon on Saturday I could hear a vehicle start run for a few seconds and shut off. I assumed it was a neighbors vehicle. This occurred at least 5 times and it peaked my interest. It was my truck starting on its own. I went outside and opened the drivers door… the radio stopped playing and the dash went dark. It has not repeated since Saturday. Mileage 41256. Approximately 3 months ago the radio would automatically scroll/change channels…GM said it was not covered under warranty. So I decided to let it go. About 3 weeks ago the radio started working okay.
