Anyone else having a problems with their car not starting

Asked by Takeya Jul 28, 2019 at 02:33 PM about the 2013 Ford Focus SE

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2013 Ford Focus SE. Recently I went on a trip (drove a rental) and
came back home to my car not starting. So I figured it was my battery, so I
got a new battery. The car still didnt start. So I had it towed to my mechanic.
He ended up replacing the starter and the car still would not start. The
battery and Starter both brand new and car still wont start. Oh yeah and
alternator, security system, auto-theft, and gears have been checked and are
all good. Anyone have any suggestions for me.
Really dont want to have to buy a car just not the best timing for it.

Check how much gas you have, if it below half tank it could be the gas purge valve. I had that problem weeks ago and got it fixed (somewhat inexpensive)
