No starter

This will sound crazy but. There is a parking lot that my dauughter occassionally parks. On several occassions when she parks there, she has had trouble starting her car. Sometimes it needs to be jumped. Other time it would not stay running unless the gas was being pressed, but after she waits it will eventually start and run as if nothing is the problem. This has happened in this same lot numberous times. Is there something that could be messing with the voltage or with the computer system in her car? Oranything else that I did not mention
