Question Problem

For some reason when i went to move my car yesterday, I turned it on and then about 1 second later it just died i went to turn it back on and it wouldnt do anything, all of the normal startup lights, but no SES light, came on but nothing, then I tried about 4 more times and it did the same thing WTF? Later on i went out to town and it did this twice to me. Called the dealer and he told me to bring it in but he said that there has not been any problems with them as far as he knows, but have any of yall experienced any problems like this? The car is bone stock, down to the air filter stock no tune no nothing. WTF?

i had this similar problem---when my bat died it told me to report to the nearest dealership, and it gave me every light possible. and when i got some bad gas it ran like poopie when i would start it it would stumble and idle like crap sometimes shuting off. also your cam postion sensor might be poopie too.

I talked to the dealer yesterday and he told me that the car was throwing a security code? I am going to try to reach the advisor today and see what the hell is up. And kudos to the douchebags at enterprise for not letting me get the mustang out on the lot, instead i got a bad *** cobalt base model 4 door clear window, i was fixing to throw up whenever they told me that.
