Consumer Description

2003 CHEVY MONTE CARLO. "SECURITY" DISPLAYED IN MESSAGE CENTER. WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT MY HEADLIGHTS FLASH ON AND OFF, MY DOORS WILL NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK AND TRUNK WILL NOT OPEN USING INSIDE BUTTONS OR WIRELESS REMOTE. I HAVE CONTACTED SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE WITH SAME PROBLEM WHO HAVE SPENT HUNDREDS AT CHEVY GARAGES TO FIX THIS, WITH NO RESOLVE. I TALKED TO A CHEVY MECHANIC WHO SAID THEY ARE SEEING ALOT OF THESE "MANUFACTURE SECURITY DEFECTS" AND EVENTUALLY MY CAR WILL LOCK DOWN AND NOT RUN, SO WHERE IS THE RECALL TO CORRECT THEIR ISSUE. *TR
