Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I live in the pittsburgh area and have had my ion for almost a year and have never had a problem with. that is until this winter. 4 times i have came out of work at night on cold nights to start my car only to have it not start. after about 15 - 25 minutes of trying my car finally starts up. after i have sat in the cold. i can't wait for the day it decides not to start. anyway i never left anything on , no doors were left open,nothing. i don't know if this has something to do with the battery being located in the trunk of the car or not. everything else is fine and it runs fine after i do get it to start. we are expecting some cold days ahead were in live in the next few weeks, so i can't wait to see if it happens again. we i leave work everyone around me has no problem starting up there car different makes and years no problem. i will be giving my dealership a call tomorrow to see if they can help but i am sure as most dealerships are they won't. anyone else have this problem? *nm
