My camaro wont start ):

[NDballers]

Alright i'm going to make this short, i'm not the best car guy but here is what I think is wrong..


I park my camaro in my back yard, (don't have a garage spot yet) And I had took my car out and stayed the night at my friends, so when I go home I found out my back yard is all muddy and crap but it was covered with grass, so I am driving strait through mud and I park in my spot in the back, and stepped out and I was like OMG this isn't good at all, so idk why but I put on the E-Brake and just turned my car off.. Today when I put my key in all my electronics work, my ac works, radio works, lights work etc.. it just doesn't start the ignition. I tried to have my dad jump start me from the front of the car, and it wouldn't work I think its my alternator but 2011 is to young to break like that isn't it?

I'm really not wanting to pay for a tow truck my car is under warranty still so that's alright. Thanks for help/suggestions

Yes, But I can change the gears when I turn my accessories on,

Shiii, I forgot to say my check engine light was on also.. And on my gage thing where you have the menu it says like roll driver window down then back up and after that it says roll passenger window down and back up

I second this, If everything comes on the battery is fine, If it's not turning over it's the starter or maybe it's in the wrong gear.

the gauges light up normally, what happens when you turn the key? and if it's a manual you are putting your feet on the clutch/break first?

yeah the gauges light up normally, its a automatic, and when I turn the key I hear a click noise and I had my dad turn the key and the click noise sounds around this area of the engine, my dad wouldn't let me take the cover off :(

ok fyi the cover just pops on it's no big deal however the clicking to me sounds like starter problems without being able to poke the car myself, Id highly suggest getting the car to a dealer if the car doesn't sound like it's trying to turn over (sounds like it's normally trying to start)

also if your still in warranty a decent dealer will eat the cost of a tow from at least 100 miles... well at least mine will.

You get the roll down window and roll back up message when there has been an interruption in battery power to the car.

...Just have it towed to the dealership...call the GM towing number. Should all be free. Oh and take pics of it on the wrecker . But sounds like the battery.
