Screech when I turn the key

Hello all,

This has happened about 4 times in the last month or so. When the car has been sitting a while and I turn the key, I hear a very loud screech sound and nothing happens. The engine doesn't even try to turn over. So I let it sit for about 10 seconds and turn the ignition again and it starts up great like nothing happened before. I also notice no extra noises while driving, even when the engine is cold. Does this sound like a starter problem? I'm pretty sure I'm still on my stock one at 68,000 miles (second owner).

Thanks,
Chris

Screech when you turn sounds like a starter problem but you shouldnt hear it when your driving
