In a 2017 Honda Civic, the starter is positioned on the engine's side, near where it connects with the transmission. The starter, a small motor that functions with a battery, is responsible for kickstarting your car's engine. If the starter relay and motor aren't working correctly, you may need a jumpstart or a tow just to exit a parking spot. One sign of a faulty starter is a clicking sound when you try to start the car, but it's possible for the starter to fail without any noise, or it might signal its impending failure with grinding or whirring sounds. Be attentive!
