Every so often, It's a good idea to remove the ground cable at the chassis and wire brush or sand the area around the mounting hole on the center crossmember. Should be nice, shiny bare metal to continue to be effective.

I had the same problem exactly and newly cleaned cable connections and a new ground cable corrected it immediately.
