I first noticed a loss of power in the days before it died. Acceleration was WAY lower than usual and the rpm would jump in between 500 and 1000 when idling. Second gear in particular would be seriously jumpy while trying to accelerate. Then last night I tried to start and it would just keep turning over without starting. What's wrong with my car :(

first try resetting your security system look online or in manual if you have one if it still doesn't start scan for codes and check fuel pressure with a gauge autoparts rent it.
