Description of the problem	For the third time in 6 months my car wouldn't start. Got of work getting ready to go home and the car wouldn't start. Towed to the dealership and they checked it and couldn't find a thing. They asked me to bring the spare key and the car started. Fast forward three weeks later... Same issue. They kept the car for 5 days and couldn't find noting so they replaced the battery in november. Fast forward to yesterday feb. 25th. 2014 same thing happened.
