Consumer Description

MY CAR HAS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM WITH STARTING. I HAVE ONLY HAD THIS VEHICLE FOR 6 WEEKS AND IT HAS FAILED TO START ON MANY DIFFERENT OCCASSIONS. I HAVE HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP TWO SEPARATE TIMES AND THEY TELL ME THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT. I FIGURED OUT THAT WHEN MY CAR WON'T START, WHILE IN PARK, I CAN TURN THE KEY TO THE ON POSITION AND MOVE THE SHIFTER INTO NEUTRAL. IT STARTS AT THIS POINT. EACH TIME THAT MY VEHICLE HAS FAILED TO START, IT HAS BEEN IN PARK IN MY DRIVEWAY, ON A SLIGHT INCLINE.
