Hi,I tryed to start the Max after work and it would start. Engine would not crank. I have a brand new battery and alternator. Then I put the car in neutral and the car started. This seems weird to me. Does anyone know what went wrong? Please help if you can.

hmm,automatic or manual?

check your neutral safety switch.
do a search and see wht info comes up,

 

automatic

 

probably the switch.
do a search.

anyone else wanna chime in?

 

Definitely the parking/neutral safety switch, it prevents the engine from cranking if the doesn't think that the car is either in park or neutral.
