Consumer Description

FOR THE SECOND TIME IN THREE MONTHS, MY 2005 CHEVY CORVETTE DECIDED TO LOCK ME OUT AGAIN ON ITS OWN. THE "SMART KEY" SYSTEM, WHICH IS SUPPOSE TO LOCK THE DOORS WHEN THE KEYS ARE OUT OF THE CAR AND UNLOCKS WHEN THE KEYS ARE IN THE CAR. WELL IT FREAKS OUT WHEN THERE ARE TWO KEYS IN THERE. WHENEVER THERE ARE TWO KEYS IN THE CAR, THE SYSTEM FLIPS AND LOCKS THE PERSON OUT. THIS IS THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM AS I HAD LAST TIME. MY KEYS ARE IN PLAIN VIEW OF MY WINDOW, YET I STILL CANT GET IN BECAUSE THE DOORS WONT UNLOCK. IS THERE ANYWAY TO GET CHEVY TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. NOW I HAVE TO FIND A WAY TO GET IN MY CAR. *TR
