Does she has a car?

Hi i want to ask to someone with this sentence "Does she has a car?"
But someone to correct to me "Does she have a car?"
Why not " does she has a car?

In "She has a car", the verb "have" is inflected to match the subject ("she"), becoming "has". ", it is the auxiliary verb that inflects, becoming "does". The main verb, "have", stays in its base form.

When we include the auxiliary verb "do", as in "She does have a car" and "Does she have a car?", it is the auxiliary verb that inflects, becoming "does". The main verb, "have", stays in its base form. This is just a rule of English.
