Consumer Description
THE CAR HAS TROUBLE STARTING, OFTEN TAKING TWO OR THREE TRIES BEFORE STARTING. WILL TURN OVER FOR UP TO 30 SECONDS AND THEN EVENTUALLY START. BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG. THE VERY NEXT DAY THE PROBLEM ACTED UP AGAIN. HAPPENS AT LEAST A DOZEN TIMES PER WEEK UPON TRYING TO START THE CAR. THOUGHT MAYBE THE COLD WEATHER HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH IT, WAITED UNTIL THE END OF WINTER TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT...STILL THE SAME PROBLEM. WANTED THE CAR TO BE SERVICED AND FIXED BEFORE THE WARRANTY RUNS OUT. *NM
