hi i've had this used malibe for two years exactly with putting 40,000
miles on it. I've had the head gasket replaced already and my brakes
seem to need to be replaced twice a year. Yesterday i noticed my doors
wouldn't auto-lock and when i went to get in today they wouldn't unlock
(i manually locked them all last night) but my car wont start.

It turns over, stays on for approx. 4-5 seconds then dies again... It's
not typical for a car to semi-start then die. I was wondering if
anyone has had this sort of problem and any suggestions? Im about to
remove then re-attach my battery hopin to reset the electrical system.
But what if there is a bigger issue.
