It will not turn over something like this happened before and I had to get a new key and have it programmed.

The truck listed above is a Limited model eco boost.

Hi,

Is it possible for you to video what is happening? I just dealt with a similar issue and the problem was a weak battery.

If you haven't already, confirm the battery is fully charged and the terminals are both clean and tight.

Let me know.

Yep, agree with JACOBANDNICKOLAS, it sounds like the battery needs to be replaced, here is a guide to help walk you through it. You can take the battery to the auto parts store and they will test it for you.
