Any information would be so helpfull!! since i got the car 2 months ago iv had nothing but issues mainly starting issues, When i turn the car over it will not start, it want to start you can hear it but it is not "catching" all the time it takes me aleast 2-3trys, alot of the time it could take me 7-10 trys it get very irritating! at first we thought fuel pump as it does feel like its just missing some sort of connection to somthign need( ie fuel ) but that was tested by MY MACHANIC cuz the dealership talks a hole lot but thats botu it ...and fuel pressure is normal, he found alot of immobilzer codes and a few engine codes so now the dealership is sayn the key is worn outthere for the keys need to be replace ( $400) however they can not say forsure as they are not geting codes and the car does eventually still start so they dont know the exact issue, so in a nut sell i just bought a car for 10,000 and now they want me to spend another 400 for a "maybe" fix to START the car iv have for TWO MONTHS grrrrr they are trying to tell me this is a normal wear n tear for these care ( im not seeing many others reporting this issue) anybody!!! anything will help me!!!! pls!
