“1) my wife and I were coming home from dining out. We was turning on walton ferry road when we heard this loud noise coming from under the hood. 2) when we reached home I pulled in the drive and shut the engine off. I went to restart my engine it would not start. 3) replaced starter which had locked up. Replaced starter relay which was the main factor for this failure. The starter relay will try to start the engine even if the key is out.”
