Need to add more specifics. Does it have power at all? Does it make noise when you try and start it? ETC.

I had an issue with mine awhile back that no one could figure out (even the dealer) the car, sometimes would not start for no apparent reason. Long story short, it ended up being the battery + terminal had separated from the terminal that connects to the battery. It was not noticeable because the red plastic cover that surrounds the terminal held everything into place which made it (terminal) look normal. I bought a new cable and installed. Problem solved.

I had the same problem, car would just shut off on it's own and won't turn over.

dealer replaced my alternator and works just fine now.

You should change your ibs battery sensor before changing your alternator. It would save you a ton... That exactly what happen to my car
