Exclamation QUICK! I need help!

When I try to turn my car on, it doesn't turn over. It sputters or buzzes. What the hell is this?

Make sure the shift is engaged all the way to Park. Also try to put it in Neutral. Sometimes if it's not all the way to Park...it will do that.

If you got a new battery in there.....Damn, I don't know man.
Did you just install anything new like new audio system, alarm, HID kit???
The reason I ask is if you did....you might want to undo all that before bring it in to the dealer to avoid all the headache about voiding your warranty.
Bring it in. I meant tow it in. Sorry man.

Yep!
If it's a new battery,it's a defective battery or you may have a serious battery drain problem.

Perhaps leave a light on or something? Do any work lately around the battery? Sounds like a dead battery or bad alternator.

I like stock cars, so I didn't change anything.
I don't want to bring it in to the dealer, because thats a lawsuit waiting to happen(don't ask)
The battery is hooked up correctly, I made sure at least 13 times

This is just a headache! just in case some were wondering, its a 02' le 4 cylinder, with 145394 miles on the odo

Also, the brights look like they aren't even on, the brake lamps lake longer to come on, the power drivers seat doesn't work anymore, the radio just goes crazy now, and it spits out cd's. this cannot be normal.

I was thinking about the alternator. I have done no work on or around the battery. When I leave it on on, it sounds as thought the car has turned on(the bell noise) and like I said, the battery is brand new.

It just might be defective. Well, no because, we tested it with a battery thingy. Ughh this is crazy as fuck.
