NHTSA Complaint #10342896 — 2000 CHEVROLET MALIBU

2000 CHEVY MALIBU, PERIODICALLY DOESN'T START - WAS TOLD IT WAS A PASSLOCK PROBLEM. SINCE FEBRUARY HAVE HAD VARIOUS BUSINESSES REPLACE FUEL PUMP, PASS LOCK SENSOR, FUEL FILTER, STARTER AND CRANKSHAFT SENSOR TO TRY AND FIX THIS PROBLEM. NONE OF THESE HAVE WORKED AND THIS PROBLEM STILL EXISTS TODAY. NO ONE KNOWS WHAT ELSE TO TRY. IF I CAN'T START THE CAR, I HAVE TO TURN THE KEY TO THE OFF POSITION (NOT THE LOCK POSITION) AND LEAVE IT FOR 10 MINUTES THEN THE CAR WILL START. UNBELIEVABLE. I AM 79 YEARS OLD AND THIS IS NO WAY TO LIVE WITH AN OTHERWISE PERFECTLY GOOD AUTOMOBILE. STILL NOT FIXED AND NO KNOWLEDGE OF WHAT TO DO NOW. CAR ONLY HAS 32000 MILES AND IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND IT WILL BE VERY DIFFICULT TO SELL IF IT WON'T START. *TR
