    :evil: well...
    I had duty yesterday... which means I drove 2 work around 5am and got off to day around 4pm! I get to the car only find out it won't start!!!! I bought it on the 14th! it only has 700 mi. on it! the battery was fine while I waited for a tow truck I watched over the hedge in the car! so it wasn't the battery! I moved the ignition from on to start and nothing happened... no clicking(battery) or no clunking(gas was fine) no clue! Tow truck arrived at the gate of the navy base! he needed me to escort him to my car! this means I had to walk all the way to the gate a good 30 min. walk! after I got there, I found out I had to wait for a police escort! wtf! I just wanted to go home!!!! after all that I get to the dealership around 7pm and the service guy got in the car and it started right up no problem!!!! :evil: WTF!!! I am so pissed!!!! a complete waste of my evening!!!

    it might be due to that relay that was bad in our cars..
    ill try to find the post.. but i remember reading it somewhere.
    this happens when its cold and u have a bad relay.

    so once your car warms up it turns on right away.
