Today while driving over a speed bump, my car died. It was running fine, no spuddering or anything to make me think it was dying, or running out of gas. However, I was low on gas so I tried to see if maybe I had run out. No luck. Can you think of something that maybe happened, like if I could have knocked something loose by going over this bump? I was going slow. Just trying to narrow things down that I might need to check out. When I try to start it, it makes the noise like it is turning over but does not even try to run.

Any applicable trouble codes? If it cranks ok but won't start, have a helper crank it, while you visually check for spark at the spark plugs. If you have spark everywhere, check for injector pulse. Use a gage and check fuel pressure.
