Consumer Description

THE SECURITY LIGHT BEGAN COMING ON BUT WOULD GO OFF AFTER I RESTARTED THE CAR. I THOUGHT IT WAS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. HOWEVER, IN OCTOBER 2009, I BECAME STRANDED AND HAD TO BE TOWED WHICH COST $150. THE DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME IT WAS PART OF MY SECURITY SYSTEM AND I REPLACED THAT FOR ABOUT $400. I DO HAVE THE INVOICE FOR EXACT FIGURES. THEN IN MARCH OF 2011, THE SECURITY LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. NOT WANTING TO BECOME STRANDED AGAIN, I BROUGHT MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP THE VERY NEXT DAY AND WAS INFORMED THAT ANOTHER PART OF THE PASS LOCK SYSTEM NEEDED REPLACING. THIS WAS $450. THEY ALSO INFORMED ME THAT THERE IS A THIRD PART TO THIS SYSTEM. IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME THAT THIS PART FAILS. *TR
