There are various reasons why a car won't start, such as: dead battery, damaged ignition coil, faulty ignition solenoid valve, broken ignition switch, problematic buffer plate, engine failure, etc. It's best to have it checked at a 4S shop or repair shop for specific diagnosis.

My Buick car also failed to start the other day, and that clicking sound without ignition was really frustrating. After inspection, it turned out the battery was dead—probably because I forgot to turn off the lights or the AC drained a bit too much while parked. Another common cause is a worn-out starter motor that seizes up and lacks power during operation. Fuel system issues like an empty tank or a failed fuel pump often trigger warning lights on the dashboard. Electrical problems, such as blown fuses or poor wiring connections, can also affect spark plug ignition. These issues occur more frequently in winter or humid conditions when battery performance drops rapidly. Avoid cranking continuously to prevent part damage—first, use a multimeter to check voltage; if it’s below 12V, try jump-starting with another car. Regular maintenance, like testing battery health every six months, helps prevent surprises. Safety first—don’t push your luck, and always reach out to a 4S店 for professional help promptly.
