It is possible that the starter motor itself is faulty and needs to be replaced. It could also be an issue with the wiring or connections to the starter motor. I recommend taking your car to a mechanic for a proper diagnosis and repair.

Check the ignition switch, as it could be causing a malfunction in the starter motor. You can also try tapping on the starter motor with a hammer to see if it frees up any stuck parts. If these solutions do not work, it is best to take your car to a professional for further assistance.

Before assuming it is a problem with the starter motor, check the fuel pump and filters. Sometimes a lack of fuel can prevent the starter motor from working properly. If these components are fine, you may need to replace the starter motor or seek mechanical help from a trusted mechanic.
