My Pontiac vibe 2009 will not start

Asked by Fluxer Jul 26, 2017 at 02:09 PM about the 2009 Pontiac Vibe 1.8L

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

For the past 2 days it was slow to start, now it won't start at all. I really don't
know much about cars, but I feel like my spark plugs are dead, though I'm
not sure. When I try to start the vehicle, it makes a really odd sputtering
sound, if I hold the key trying to turn over the engine, nothing happens.

Any ideas?
