I am so mad. Its barely over my 3 year mark. Well my car is having turning on issues. It did it a few weeks ago and then again this morning. The car will crank but it will not turn over. It took the longest this morning. And its only in the am when it happens. After 15 min or so it will turn on fine.

The dealership said I have to bring it in and leave it until it does it again. I cannot be without a car for 2-3 weeks + until it does it again.

I am not sure what to do.

Do below to determine whether it's fuel or spark problem:

Cranks but no start condition:

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine at least 3/16 away from ground -have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs, coil's resistances, distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it.
