If someone is not sure about something and I want to ask why, how should I formulate the question?
Why you are not sure?
Why are you not sure?
Why are not you sure?
'Why are you not sure?' is correct. Although depending on the context, it can sound a bit rude to ask this question. How were you wanting to use it?

It’s the second : ‘Why are you not sure ?’ This sounds rather formal and slightly patronising so
it is usual to ask ‘Why aren’t you sure ?’ However this form is never used without the contraction ‘aren’t’ [as in your third] ; it would sound weird.
