Sent to Car Experts June 10, 2006 10:25 a.m.

I have a 1996 Buick Regal with 47000 miles, sometimes when I try to start the car - nothing happens. I have lights, radio, all other power, the car just won't start. This happened 4 times and the Buick Dealer changed the key & ignition switch, battery, starter, and a new alternator. The problem just happened again.

I don't want to have the dealer changing good parts at high prices and not fix the problem. Any idea's?

Optional Information:
1996 Buick Regal 3.8

Already Tried:
New Key & Ignition Cylinder, Battery, Starter, Altenator - all work done by dealer

Hello.Is this anti-theft equipped and is the security light blinking when this occurs?
