It only lasted a few seconds so I didn't really notice if the engine was running on its own or not. Needless to say that had not occurred before or since. The second oddity happened today when I was leaving work. i tried to start the car and it just kept cranking the engine and not actually starting. I simply pushed the button again and it stopped trying to start the car. I was immediately able to start the car afterwards.
Has anyone had any issues like this? I tried searching but any good keywords I can think of result in a ton of search results, none of which seem to be relevant.
Thanks!

Any idea how long the car sat before you bought it? Starter solenoids can be some of the funkiest things in the world when left un used for to long. They seem to jamb up or stick for no apparent reason. If it keeps it up get it checked but odds are it will just stop doing things all on it's own.
