wrong forum, but I will try to help. how many miles are on the car? it sounds like the car is having a hard time starting. this is typical of a push-to-start car where the car tries over and over again until the engine fires over. there are many contributing factors to a long start such as bad gas, no spark, compression, etc. when was the last time a tune up was done to the car?
