Consumer Description

SINCE THIS CAR WAS NEW, THE CAR LOCKS AND UNLOCKS ITSELF REGULARLY. IF YOU GET OUT OF CAR, THEN RETURN TO CAR EVEN WITHIN SECONDS, WHEN YOU OPEN DOOR THE ALARM GOES OFF. YOU CANT DO ANYTHING WITH CAR, WITHOUT HAVING KEYS IN HAND READY TO SHUT OFF ALARM. EVEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE DOORS LOCK AND UNLOCK REGULARLY. HAVE TAKEN TO DEALER AND THEY SAY NOTHING WRONG. CAR NOW HAS JUST OVER 100K MILES, AND AM LEANING TOWARDS NEVER BUYING GM AGAIN. *TR
