sadly a very common problem on many many cars and often overlooked by mechanics when fault finding. I fixed a vehicle a few weeks ago with almost the same symptons due to s seriously poor earth that had been overlooked by 2 dealers ! one of which had the vehicle in their workshop for two weeks.
The salt on the roads this year was very heavey and sticky as they had added a mix, this has been extremley corrosive on vehicles including all the earth points.
I always clean and grease them but see plenty that are so corroded even on 4 year old cars.
My current experince is that many vehicle manufactures are finding any excuse to bail out of any warranty whatsoever. these manufactures may well suffer long term when customers remember their bad experinceces and buy elsewhere!
