what is it with the ignition that is being recalled? Sometimes I have the problem of turning it on and it won't start, so I have to do it againfor it to work

its the ignition coilpacks that were recalled. If you had a bad one you would know it when your car was running.

You might have a bad temp sensor if your car has trouble starting. Do you have to keep cranking it?
