I'M SO FUCKING TIRED OF MY GOD DAMNED CAR NOT STARTING!!!!!!!!!!! What am I doing wrong? It's not the battery, I had that replaced! They checked the transmission the last time I took it in! What's going on!!! I need my fucking car to start!!! This car is going to lose me a job! Granted I don't like the job, it's way to far away, but dammit

If it needs jumped before it'll start it would sound as if you have a short somewhere or your charging system is not functioning.

I forgot to tell you what happened with my car, because all my mechanic friends (and pretty much people who hate mechanics) like to cringe at this story. Apparently the person who replaced my battery decided he didn't need to tell me that the old one had been leaking acid all over the freakin' place. And he decided to just go ahead and reuse the corroded bolt and wire connecting my battery to the car.

Needless to say, this didn't work so well as far as keeping my battery actually charged. Fuckers cost me an extra $50 at the Saturn dealer in labor fees when they could have made an extra $15 and kept someone from telling people not to use their services (Firestone Auto, by the way)
