I drove it to work and drove it home with no trouble. Once home, long drive in traffic, we got in and it wouldn't start after several attempts. We had the hood up like we did last time and presently it started. Cool off period? Hmmm...
Intermittent electrical problems are tough to find, most likely candidates could be a starter relay or starter solenoid, relay would be my first and most inexpensive guess. Not sure where it's located, but here's a 2008 diagram: https://www.cargurus.com/Cars/Discus...32674_ds638970
Good luck!
