The lights and other devices work, but you can't get the starter motor to work.

yeah its called the prndl switch, or park neutral safety switch. good point about that.
[/QUOTE=IrvJr]During the times when the car did not start, did you double check whether or not the shifter was all of the way engaged into park or neutral? Did you have to jiggle the shifter before it would start properly.Good luck![/quote]
Im Sorry bro but that couldnt be the problem1. hed have to put his key in to start the car and u wouldnt be able to take the key out in the first place if the car wasnt in park, and the only way to get it out of park is to press the brake, so it seems pretty rare that the shifter would jump out right before hed try to start it, but good suggestion.
[/QUOTE=IrvJr]Perhaps you can ask the dealer to check the ignition cut off switch (or whatever the gizmo is formally called) and see if it might be causing problems.[/quote]
good idea. im sure these grease monkeys will find out whats wrong with it. there definetly not technicians. good luck bro
