Consumer Description

WHEN I TRY TO START MY CAR, IT WILL NOT START. I HAVE TO WAIT 10 MINUTES AND THEN TRY AGAIN. IT IS GETTING WORSE AND I HAVE HAD TO WAIT UP UNTIL ONE HOUR TO BE ABLE TO START CAR. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED IT AT ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS TO TRY TO GET THE PROBLEM RESOLVED AND THEY HAVE NOT FIXED IT. SOMETIMES, I CAN GO A WEEK WITHOUT THIS HAPPENING AND AT OTHER TIMES, IT HAPPENS TO ME SEVERAL TIMES IN A DAY. I HAVE BEEN LATE TO WORK COUNTLESS TIMES DUE TO THIS AND BEEN INCONVENIENCED. IT IS SCARY BECAUSE I AM NOT SURE IF IT COULD BE AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE OR WHAT ELSE COULD HAPPEN AS A RESULT OF THIS DEFECT. I'M NOT SURE IF THE PROBLEM COULD BE THE KEY, IGNITION SWITCH OR SOMETHING EVEN MORE DETAILED.
