Had tried to start vehicle the 1st time & it failed to catch. Retried the 2nd time & finally caught. Weather was not a factor in starting vehicle. Had taken vehicle to dealer & mechanic replaced the battery. Also had fuel pump checked & replaced it. The new fuel pump terminal was broken & needed to be replaced. The computer chip was also replaced. In addition, PCV hose was not insulated & the windshield wiper washer was not working.
