Same problem for me, got a jump and started right up, not starter. Saw a post earlier and may be charging system. I doubt alternator because i let it run maybe 20 mins ran to gas station n filled up never turned off then drove back home n turned off. Started right back up 3 times. If you findiut the problem please repost it.
Mine just started 2 days ago ! Not the battery or alternator got those checked. But the lights inside work.

Hi, check ur anti theft system. Same problem I'm having and I just found out that the key has a transponder that automatically disables the theft system when removed. I had a new key made by a pop a lock service so it probably doesn't have that itransponder in it. I'm going to try and get a key from dealership. It also said that if the key is damaged or malfunctions it won't work. I hope this helps you!!
