Consumer Description

I WENT OUT TO START MY CAR AND IT WOULD NOT TURN OVER. AFTER WAITING AND TRYING SEVERAL TIMES, STILL NOTHING. I HAD THE CARD TOWED AND LEARNED THAT IT WAS THE ANTI-THEFT DEVICE WHICH MEANT THAT THE IGNITION WOULD ALSO NEED TO BE REPLACED. I HAD IT REPAIRED FOR $650. THIRTY DAYS LATER, SAME PROBLEM. ANOTHER 30 DAYS, IT WOULD NOT START AGAIN. IT HAS BEEN OVER 6 MONTHS NOW AND NOT PROBLEMS STARTING; HOWEVER THE ANTI-THEFT LIGHT HAS COME ON ONCE WHILE DRIVING AND MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT THE CAR CAN CUT OFF IMMEDIATELY WHEN THIS HAPPENS. IT WAS A BAD TIME WHEN IT FIRST HAPPENED IN APRIL. I HAD MY GRANDCHILDREN AT MY HOUSE FOR EASTER BREAK AND WE HAD GREAT PLANS...NEVER MIND! I DID CONTACT GM AND THEY ASSURED ME IF THERE WAS A RECALL THAT I COULD CLAIM MY EXPENSES FOR REIMBURSEMENT. *TR
