Consumer Description
ON 01/22/08 WHILE DRIVING, THE "SECURITY" LIGHT APPEARED IN THE MESSAGE CENTER ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. WHEN I STOPPED THE CAR, TURNED IT OFF, AND RESTARTED, ALL WAS FINE AND THE LIGHT REMAINED OFF. THE FOLLOWING DAY, AFTER DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MILES, THE "SECURITY" LIGHT APPEARED. THIS HAS HAPPENED A TOTAL OF FOUR TIMES, MOST RECENTLY ON 01/27/08. WHEN THE LIGHT APPEARED, THE HEADLIGHTS DIMMED FOR A MOMENT. WHEN I STOPPED THE CAR, THE LIGHTS ON THE RADIO WERE EXTREMELY DIM. ON 01/28/08, I WENT TO START THE CAR AND THE BATTERY APPEARED TO BE DEAD. AN ATTEMPT TO JUMP OFF THE CAR WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. THIS SEEMS TO BE RELATED TO THE VERY COMMON "PASSLOCK" PROBLEMS ON OTHER GM PRODUCTS. *TR
