Starter dragging - Toyota Yaris Forums

I've come to rely on the "automatic starter", where you give the key a single twist and the engine proceeds to start itself without any trouble. However, pretty much since it was new, on occasion it would hang up..that is, the starter would continue to start, even after the engine seemingly had already started. It only lasts for a few seconds, but I fear that it is damaging/has damaged/is because of a damaged starter or flywheel. I'll make an appt with the service at my dealer (one of the few I guess we can trust), but I wonder if anyone else has experienced this activity?
