Answer
Hi Karlee:
did you try to jump start the car? It sould like either a weak/dead battery or a factory security system failure. Try jump starting the car if that doesn't work and the security lamp is on flashing leave the key in the run position untill the security lamp stops flashing then turn the key off and then try to start it again. If it starts then and runs the problem is with the security system and the car needs to have that fixed it it still just clicks and will not start the starter motor is more than likely bad. good luck :)
