As starter motors get old they can require higher current in order to turn successfully, so despite you having no obvious power problem I would first check your battery – also because this is a simple thing to replace if necessary.
What causes an electric fan to slow down and stop?
The run capacitor stores charge and delays the current momentarily, which gives the fan rotor time to turn and orient itself so that the induced magnetic force is effective. When the capacitor burns out, the electric current through the coil is too steady to generate torque, and the fan slows down and stops.
How can I Stop my Car from turning over?
If it doesn’t and you need to jumpstart it again, drive it to the nearest automotive store and buy a new battery. Another thing that can stop your car from turning over is a dirty starter cable.

What to do when your car stops for no reason?
