Make sure you have the correct bulb for the vehicle. If so check
for power at bulb with tester. Also, if you have a trailer hitch
wiring kit on it may have corrosion build up at connector.

Your battery is low or has weak cell. I recommend jump starting vehicle. If it jump starts then replace the battery. If
battery warning light is illuminated on dash may have charging
system concern.

I have found the solution to this problem. I have replaced a total of 3 starter motors and has gone away for various periods of time. Further diagnosed when concern happened again starter
would work again after starter ignition feed wire wiggled. I found corrosion build up in connector at ignition feed wire. I replaced connector on wire to starter solenoid and concern has not returned.

My man I know your pain... I have the exact same problem happening to me now... same make, year and model... I called a mechanic buddy of mine and he said I might have a "flat point" on my starter and if so this might happen intermittently... he suggested a replacement of the starter... But I think the other suggestion is also quite valid so I going to have my friend do both...

I had same prob - no rhyme nor reason as to when, where or why it wouldn't start. After two new starters the shop finally found a starter wire/cable that was corroded on the inside. Mech' could move it back and forth and it would / would not start. Changed cable six months ago - no problems since. Hope it helps.

actually, it's most likely a differential problem. if the pinion or worm gear id missing a spur, it will vibrate and grind until enough oil covers them to stop the friction...usually after 10 min or so. what they will do is use a micro lubricant that seeps into the metal to keep it lubed up even when the oil has settled to the bottom of the case, this will at least quiet the grinding for those 10 min or so until the inevitable happens and the gear shatters because of vibration, wear, etc.
if its in the front, youll still be able to drive, but only in 2WD and you will hear a loud grinding/rattling, very unpleasent sound, from the front end. have them open up the case and look at the gears instead of assuming, its 10 bolts for gods sake so they need to do their job and WORK! dont let them toss you aside, tell them what you want...sometimes thats what it takes.
How often do you need to change the spark plugs?
Newer vehicles, including yours are made with 100K plugs. This means unless you have issues with them they dont require replacing before you exceed 100K miles on the vehicle. If you are having issues with the performance of the engine such as sputtering that leads you to believe its the plugs then after a thorough diagnosis, if you decide to replace them be sure and utilize quality plugs and gap them properly. If you get "specialty" plugs like T3 or tri-tips, etc make sure you get them for your vehicle as they come factory gapped and ready for installation. ALso be sure and replace all plugs at same time.. dont mix and match. Inspect your wires for cracking or glazing as well.
My tow vehicle pulls hard to the right while
I don't know what type or brand travel trailer you have but I would have the axle/axles checked to see if they may have shifted on the leaf springs causing the trailer to push to one side or another. Basically have the axle alignment checked on the trailer. Also check the spring shackles and bushings for damage and rot. And check the trailer brakes if equipped for dragging on one side more than the other.

check engine light it tied to all the engine control sensors (and more) Larger auto parts outlets will do a free code scan for you. Once you learn what the code is, you can buy a chiltons or haynes manual and determine what the code means and what you need to do to replace that part.

code readers cant.the scan tools can but are real expensive.if you havent drained the trans oil yet just drive it around a while and check it.if you have drained the oil then try to measure what you took out and put that much in.if you cant measure old oil then add fluid while engine running in nuetral{double check the nuetral position writen on dip stick} add fluid untill oil is below the add level let it run for a while say 30 minutes and recheck add th full then go drive it around.recheck again if low add if high drain out or siphion some out throuh small hose through the dip stick tube
