1 Starter problem

Failure Date: 04/27/2020

I bought my 2008 Saturn Aura xr used off a car lot last year around March I started having starting issues in may shortly after buying the car . I have replaced the starter battery & other costly things but still have the no start no crank issue with my car it's still driveable but when the car heats up my car wont start until after the car cools for about 30 minutes to an hour my car is not showing signs of overheating this problem is very stressful & dangerous I'm tired of being stuck when I go places also sometimes my car doesn't go past 20 mph & I have to pull over shut the engine down and wait 15 minutes & my driver seat stopped working.
