This is an ongoing issue. I have had the car towed 5 times to three different dealerships with no resolution. I have found a work around, but it is a PIA. - Intermittently the engine will not start. When the start button is pressed there is a short tympanic response in the brake peddle (as in taping of pressing back against foot).followed by nothing. Starter and engine give no sign of power to start (no sounds), engine and anti-theft deterrence icons on dash light up. If auto start stops engine at say red light, engine may not restart. No OBD II error code. Work Around - disconnect battery, wait 10 seconds and reconnect. Note: when battery is reconnected and engine starts notification on dash instructs to lower and raise driver window (?). Dealerships service department say they can not find cause, even when this occurs while in there possession. Frequency of occurrences has increased over time from once every couple of weeks to now several times a day.
