Consumer Description

WHEN I TRY TO START MY VEHICLE I AM FORCED AT TIMES TO SIT AND WAIT 3 MINUTES BEFORE THE CAR WILL START DUE TO THE PASS-KEY THEFT-DETERRENT SYSTEM. I HAVE REPLACED MY KEY AND CLEANED THE IGNITION SWITCH WITH ELECTRONIC CONTACT CLEANER. NOTHING HELPED. SOME DAYS / WEEKS / MONTHS ARE BETTER THEN OTHERS. THE MAX TIME I HAD TO SIT AND WAIT WAS 12 MINUTES. HEAVEN FORBID I HAVE TO DRIVE AWAY IN A LIFE OR DEATH SITUATION.*AK
