Arnold,
Thanks for the follow-up. The problem started after the headlights were left on overnight and the battery was fully discharged. After fully charging the battery the vehicle would start momentarily then shut down immediately. I figured it out last night (after the flatbed tow provided by AAA). Using another key, all worked fine. Problem is in the key programming which I have to get corrected but the vehicle runs fine.
Thank you,
Ken
