10k miles and I just got this issue. It also made starting worse, having 3-4 of those whining startups sometimes now. Makes me think it was a shitty fuel pump the whole time and had nothing to do with the starter

It's been in the 30's the last few mornings here, and I've been having the same starting issues. 3-4 whiny moans before she starts. I'm dropping mine off at the dealership on weds, so we'll see what they say.

Thought i would do a follow up- I've since had the entire fuel pump replaced. The filter was completely black and clogged up. So much for only using top tier premium fuel huh? I asked if this would have been something I could remove and clean myself and the tech just shrugged his shoulders and gave me the "i don't know" face that everyone gives when talking about the pan america.
Anyway the noise is gone now finally and for those wondering about the whining start up? Yes I still get the occasional whining start up still sometimes despite having a new fuel pump.

Dealer told me that the mothership changed their minds and issues with fuel pump are now being replaced and not just documented/watched
Mine was replaced yesterday, no grinding noise anymore!
