This seems pretty obvious. You need to wash the car.

Could just be a battery or sumthin. Do the headlights turn on when you flip the switch?

That's what's wrong. Y-100 syndrome.

Your seat sensor is failing. How heavy are you?

So it isn't turning over at all, it is making no grinding sounds, and the radio is playing. Correct?

Y-100 killed your battery. Blame Elvis Duran.

You must have inserted the key the wrong way! Try it again but this time flip the key before you insert it.
