Description of the problem	Two days before my car turned off and won't turn on again this key symbol and the word "key" showed up on my dashboard. Two days later, we went to sunday dinner parked, i forgot to roll the windows up. I go to turn the car on again and it wont start. I had to have it towed almost 30 miles and now they want me to pay them 1040 to fix the problem. I purchased my car 4 months ago, with no mention from anyone that there was a possibility of this becoming an issue. Which i think is funny that they are even selling people these cars with the extent of people having this problem and with no word to the fax that the extended warranty is up. This is ridiculous that 4 months into owning this car i have to put almost 1500 with tow, parts, and labor into it already. I would have never bought this year or model if i knew this was a standard issue.
