Car won't start after hitting pothole?
check the ground from the battery to the engine block. If loose or broken, tighten or replace.
Check the fuel cutoff switch. Its on the side panel of the passenger floorboard. There should be instructions molded into the panel. Just push it down to reset it
Locate the inertia switch and reset that.
