Consumer Description

THE FACTORY PASSKEY 3 SECURITY SYSTEM HAS NUMEROUS TIMES FAILED AND GAVE ME NUISANCE ALARMS. NOW IT IS TO THE POINT THAT MY OWN CAR THINKS I AM STEALING IT AND WILL NOT DRIVE. IT WILL TURN OVER AND THEN SHUT OFF IN 3 SECONDS, I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING THIS FOR THE 3 DAYS I HAVE BEEN WITHOUT MY CAR AND THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF OTHER CONSUMERS WITH THIS PROBLEM. THE FIX I WILL HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE MY CAR TOWED TO A GM DEALER AND THEN PAY GM TO FIX THE PROBLEM THEY CREATED WHEN THEY INSTALLED THE FAULTY SECURITY SYSTEM. I SPENT MY HARD EARNED MONEY ON A CAR WITH A PROBLEM AND NOW I HAVE TO SPEND MY HARD EARNED MONEY TO FIX A PROBLEM THEY GAVE ME. NOW I KNOW WHY AMERICAN CARS ARE GOING TO CEASE TO EXIST. *TR
