Continuous Starter!! WTF!!! - Toyota Yaris Forums

I have a 2008 LiftBack and periodically when I turn the key to the ''CRANK'' position to start the engine, it continues to keep cranking. I've even got out of the car and stood there looking at it while it continues cranking. The only way to stop it is to turn the key to the off position. Try a re-start and it works OK. Yes, I have taken it to the dealer but all they can tell me is that they cannot replace anything related to the starting system unless they can make the same scenario happen. No such luck. They want me to leave my car with them for a couple of months, HUMMM, make monthly car payments and DON'T get to drive my car, I dont think so.
Anyone have a same starter issue???
