Consumer Description

SECURITY LIGHT COMES ON AND CAR WON'T START. FROM WHAT I HAVE INVESTIGATED IT SOUNDS LIKE THE PASSLOCK MODULE IS HAVING ISSUES. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES OVER THE PAST 2 YEARS AND THE MECHANICS TROUBLE SHOOT BY CHANGING OUT PART THAT HAVE COST ME OVER A $1000 BUT STILL THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. GM DOESN'T RECOGNIZE THE PASSLOCK SYSTEM AS A PROBLEM BUT THERE IS ONE AND THERE IS NO GOOD WAY TO DIAGNOSE IT. JUST BECAUSE NO ONE IS INJURED IT IS NOT RIGHT THAT WE HAVE TO EXPERIENCE THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ IT IS NOT ONLY MY 2000 GRAND AM BUT A LOT OF OTHER PONTIACS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM.. *TR
