Just saw this. .....I had this happen (similar) on my 16. First week I had it. I was just giving it a firm, but quick full depress. Once it didn't quite start, though it turned over. Sounded like a weak battery. The next day, it started but some of the screen functions didn't work. A shut off, and restart fixed it. I've since made sure I give a solid push until I hear a good few solid cranks. Hard to measure time, but maybe an extra half second?
While I can't confirm for sure that this was the issue, I had the same thing happen with my 2005 Trailblazer LTZ. While it wasn't pushbutton start, it did have the same kind of switch. You didn't have to have the key turned until it started like old cars. A quick twist of the key and you could release it. Don't know what that's called, but it's likely the same circuitry as modern push buttons. REGARDLESS.... I didn't know it had that feature as it was my first car that started that way. A few months in I short/twisted the key, and to my surprise it started! Upon realizing how it worked I'll admit I almost tried to see how short of a key turn I could use and it still start. I had multiple electrical issues and a few slow weird crank but no-start occurrences. Didn't take me long to stop doing it! ....but on occasion I would short stroke it by accident and sure enough....electrical glitch.
Who knows....just my experience.
