I JUST PURCHASED THIS CAR, USED. I WENT TO START IT, IT WORKED PERFECTLY FINE. I WENT TO START IT AGAIN LATER IN THE EVENING ( 7 HOURS ONLY FROM WHEN I BOUGHT IT ) AND IT WOULD NOT START, LIGHTS WORKED BUT IT WOULD NOT START. EVENTUALLY WHATEVER IS WRONG WITH IT BEGAN TO GET IT WORSE AND NOW IT WON'T START, AND NOTHING WILL WORK. THE KEY IS ALSO STUCK IN THE IGNITION. AGAIN, ONLY HAD THIS CAR LESS THAN 12 HOURS. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY.
