| Description of the problem | Went to start my car today, and there was a long crank but the car did not turn on. This happened 2 more times. Finally, the third time during the long crank, i stepped on the accelerator and the engine finally turned on. During the whole thing, the dashboard was on, lights were on, and radio was on - so it was not a battery issue. There was no warnings on my dashboard and no lights turned on afterwards - as if everything was fine. I am worried because i have read multiple listings regarding cars stalling while in drive, or worsening of these symptoms. I know there has been a tpim recall contributing to faulty stalling - but 2014 model was not covered under the recall. If my car symptoms become progressively worse - i am afraid that my car will shut off while i am driving - placing me and others on the road in high risk for danger. |
