Car won't start. The car will try to start up, but will not turn over. It's like the gas has been disengaged. Also, the security light comes on. We have had the car towed several times to the mechanic. We have had the fuel injector and fuel pump replaced. Happens frequently now-am concerned it will stall in traffic and be a safety issue. Have started using the 10 min wait/re-start technique I have read about on the internet and it does work, but that is a "band-aid" not a cure.
