check all connections clean your ground on the motor and connections on the starter.
It's a 2011 take it in under warranty.
The starter may be bad. Check to see how much current it draws when you try to start the car

*starting. Does it turn over real slow? if you keep turning the key over it eventually starts. on my car the alternator shoots 13.75V and the battery when car is off is at 12.70 so its not the battery. ive replaced the rear battery (looks like a motorcycle battery) in the trunk and that temporarily fixed it.
That little battery is an auxiliary battery. It keep things running when the car shuts off when you stop.
The engine light came on yesterday and today it didn't want to start . I got a message on the dashboard that said something about my remote start. I didn't even attempt to remote start my car, I just got in and press the start button. After a few minutes of just sitting there it started. Why is this happening?
