I doubt it is the starter, but I had mine rebuilt by a small auto electric shop that rebuilds starters and alternators for dealers, service station mechanics, indies etc. Not very expensive and they did the labor too. I would not get one from the dealer.

That said, I think you should try putting it in and out of gears like switching it from P to D and back then try to restart, and pushing the PNP switch as suggested first. Some people have had problems with ignition switches too. Don't have to heavy a load of keys on your key chain. I only have the fob, car key, house, and office key on mine.
