Hi Justin. Thanks for contacting us today. If you’re not able to start the vehicle by jumpstarting it, then it is possible that you have a failed ignition or starter relay or starter itself. It’s also possible that the battery cables are not correctly installed, loose or damaged. I think you might want to have a professional mechanic complete a car is hard to start inspection, so they can determine what repairs are needed.
