Description of the problem	My problem has persisted since i purchased the vehicle in november of 2012. I hit the ignition switch and the car starts and then dies. I try to hit the button again and it just cranks and cranks and won't start. The only way to get it to turn on is to cycle on and off the ignition switch and try it again. I brought it into the dealership and they said unless they can recreate the issue they can't identify the problem, and also claimed they did research and couldn't come up with any similar complaints and sent me home. I did about five minutes worth of online research and found the tipm issue along with countless complains about ignition switch issues. I called the dealership and reported my findings. They were familiar with the tipm issue, but said they can't just replace a part unless it can be proved that is the issue.
