Consumer Description

MY 2000 PONTIAC GRAND AM GT WILL, SOMETIMES, NOT START AND WHEN THIS HAPPENS, MY SECURITY LIGHT FLASHES. AFTER ABOUT 10 MINUTES, THE LIGHT WILL STOP FLASHING AND THEN I CAN START THE CAR. AT TIMES, WHILE DRIVING, THE CAR AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OFF. I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND THEN RESTART THE CAR. SO FAR I HAVE NOT HAD AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THIS. I HAVE REPLACED ALL THAT HAS BEEN SUGGESTED, BATTERY, IGNITION SWITCH, AND BATTERY CABLES. I CONTINUE TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND HAVE SEARCHED OTHER SOURCES ON INTERNET. HUNDREDS OF OTHER CUSTOMERS HAVE REPORTED HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM AND ONE FOUND OUT IT IS A SECURITY PASSLOCK SYSTEM PROBLEM. PONTIAC DEALER IN MY AREA SAID THEY NO LONGER BYPASS THE SECURITY SYSTEM WHICH IS SUPPOSE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. *TR
