Hi Candice. Thanks for contacting us today. If you turn the key and the starter will engage, but the car will not start, then it’s likely that either an ignition timing component or a fuel system part is the source. However, if your starter does not engage and "turn over" the engine, then this is likely due to a damaged starter or ignition relay or the ignition cylinder itself. Since there are multiple possible sources, you might want to have a professional mechanic complete a car is hard to start inspection at your location.
