WTH?? 2022 Wagon with 4500 miles is having occasional issues starting. Starter will crank about 15-20 seconds with no engine start. Engine acts like its trying to fire but doesn't. Seems like it does it after I drive then shut it off then try to start it again around 10-20 minutes later. This has happened about 4 times since new. Any idea's? Thanks in advance.
 
Could be a failed electrical sensor in the ignition system, try using your key for a few starts and see if you keep having that issue, if you don’t that’s the problem would be sn easy fix for the dealer! Haven’t had it happen on my PW but on other vehicles I’ve had.
 
If it does it after you fill up it might be the Evap purge valve

I don't have a key. It's actually happening more often. I will try to record a video when it happens

but no place to put the key to start it. lol.
 
Alright my bad man thought it was like my wife’s jeep, as I had similar problem and it was the sensor for the push button start I’m assuming it can still be that, from what I seen just would need to replace the actual push button assembly.

Much like 95% of all the "mechanical" touchy parts on the truck, the button sends a pulse signal on LIN bus. It's not really a mechanical switch.
