| Description of the problem | Van on multiple occasions will not start. When you turn the key you just get a click... This has been going on for 5 months (the whole time i have had this van) some days you try to start it, it wont start. Then you try again and it may start. Yesterday the van had to be trailered to a dealership... Because yet again it will not start. Not the battery or alternator. We beleive it is a faulty ignition switch. |
