If it is under warranty, take it to the dealer and get it checked out. Otherwise, pick a mechanic somewhere and get it checked out. This is one of the problems that I really fear. Electrical gremlins can be almost impossible to track down. Good luck.

I think i fixed the problem after talking to som mechanics at work they said the most probable cause would be the ignition switch. I bought a switch $20.00 part and put it in it took about 20 min
started it up about 10 times and the is no trace of the problem  |

Yo! Eric, with all of your infinite wisdom and innovations for this site, how about some sort of repair databse which problem such as this can be easily sought and found?
Just an idea
