Starter relay was sending low current to engage the starter motor. So, they replaced both the starter relay and the starter motor. I didn't want to pay for a starter motor through AAA because I knew it would cost more, but because they attached a two year/24,000 warranty, I got it through AAA. I guess the conclusion is that if something is of an emergency nature like this was, not being able to start the car, then AAA is the best choice. If it's something that an appointment can be set for, then a good mechanic is the best choice. Wasp was good, of course, but it's hard getting an appointment there because they're always booked.
