Hi, I’m having trouble with my vehicle’s starter. I have the vehicle listed above SE. The starter went out last week, I put a new one in, but it didn’t work. I took it back to the store and found out that it was defective. I got another new one, installed it, but it’s doing the same thing. The battery, fuses, and relay are all good. I need to find out if there is something on my vehicle that could cause the starter motor to fail.

No, the key has a chip, but not a smart key or push start.
