My Chrysler 2002 will not start! I had ama take this car to fountain tire for a look. The mechanics at fountain tire are not able to indentify the problem. Here is what they have looked at
Battery, starters, spark plugs, sensors, keys (ats), and now are looking at computer. Please help me help my mechanics there to get my car ready. Its been 1 week since I have had my car, very very bad experience. Please help me.

You probably just need to take it to a different shop that is more qualified as these people do not appear to be.

I agree with wrench tech, it may be the security system. But you need to do more than saying it won't start- like it won't turn over? Or just plain won't start. Have they checked fuel pressure?

They checked the security system - no go! So, they point to the main computer saying it is NOT sending the signal for the ignition and it might cost me 1500 Dollars. So, fortunately for me, my insurance company has to cover for the hail damage and they have offered to write it off for xxx amount of money. Considering the situation I am in, I called them up and asked them to write my vehicle off. In fact many suggested I do this. But, I loved my car, it was so pleasant to ride, heart wrenching indeed, my second car, never forget her, sniff.
