A:does absolutely nothin no turn ove no click car has to be towed then when warms up works finethey have plug in for those really cold nights but doesnt always work dealer says theres no problem with the car
A:I don't think the block heater would be the problem...my mom will only plug hers in every once in a while, but the point of it is to shorten the time the car needs to warm up on a cold morning.
I can't think of anything for what may be wrong with your car. Why not go to your mechanic, and check if the battery/alternator are working...

He means a block heater...Pretty common in Canada...it keeps the engine warm overnight (or any period of time) while the car isn't running. This leads to the engine starting warmer in the morning, and you don't have to wait. Not sure how it exactly works (never really looked into it)...but that's the general idea behind one there
