<human>: My car isn't starting. What should I do?
<bot>: Check to make sure the battery is connected correctly and that the cables are securely plugged into the positive terminal of the battery and the starter motor. 2 Make sure there is fuel in the tank and check for any obstructions preventing air from entering the engine. 3 Try turning the ignition switch on and off a few times, if necessary. 4 If none of these steps work, consult your vehicle's manual or take it to a qualified mechanic.
