Has anyone had a problem with the ignition switch not wanting to start your vehicle once in a while. After a few tries then it will start the vehicle???

Next time it does that, put he truck into neutral and try again. The safety switch in the shifter preventing you from starting the truck in gear might be bad or need adjustment.
