Help! 06 not starting, stranded.

I drove my car about 3 hours ago, it was perfectly fine. The battery is fine, it fires but it does not catch at all. Fouled spark plugs? Sometimes it'll kind of stumble and miss every third or forth try, all other times it just fires forever. I just had it brought in for it's 15k mile service about a month ago so it just came out of the dealer, I'm kind of shocked to have so many problems so soon.

My cruise control also decided to stop working and my driver side window goes intermitant sometimes...

Ideas ?

Any help is appreciated.

Take it to the dealer.

I just popped my '06's warranty cherry too. The soonest of any vehicle i've owned. I hope that's not a bad sign

This happened to me once. After I left the car alone for a few minutes, it started just fine.

I would definitely bring it to the dealership to see if there is a/any leak(s) in the cylinder(s) that can possibly foul out the spark plug(s). This could potentially become an even larger problem in the future if not handled immediately.

Turns out I was out of gas. The gas meter showed that I had about 45% tank left but I guess it just got pegged there. I got my fuel shutter valve replaced at a dealer 1 month ago, looks like the gas tank problems have spread even farther now. I'm taking it in to the dealer on tuesday.
