There's no way anyone can help you diagnose that problem by just looking at the car not starting. There's a check engine code on so I would go see what the code is and take it in for service.

yeah i know, but the problem its that i already leave them the car three times!

and they still dont fix it but yeeeeahhh thats right they keep me charging me for the "service"

You could try another dealer...
