Those cars are junk off the assembly line I don't know why people even buy them . I don't know why people do a lot of things I guess that's why things are a mess

Check your battery cable connections at both ends. Make sure everything is clean and tight. Clean any corrosion with a baking soda and water mixture or Coca Cola. Yes, Coca Cola, not a joke, it works well for this. Then put some Vaseline on the battery cable connections at the battery to prevent corrosion in the future. Hope that helps! Jim
