Consumer Description

MY 2005 CHEVY CLASSIC STALLS AND THE ANTI-THEFT LIGHT COMES ON THE DASHBOARD. THE CAR WON'T START AFTER REPEATED ATTEMPTS. HAPPENS AT IDLE OR AT SPEED. VERY DANGEROUS. CAR APPEARS TO THINK IT'S BEEN STOLEN. I HAVE FOUND THAT I CAN RESTART AFTER I TURN THE KEY OFF AND BACK ON REPEATEDLY. I HAVE NOW GOTTEN TO THE POINT THAT I CAN HEAR THE FUEL PUMP COME ON ONLY AFTER MANY TRIES, AND THEN IT STARTS. I'VE HAD THE IGNITION REPLACED AND FULL TUNE UP. THE MECHANIC SAYS THAT THERE ARE NO ERROR CODES IN THE COMPUTER TO RESEARCH. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT IN THE DESIGN OF THE CAR AND GM CAN EITHER RECALL IT OR GET SUED WHEN SOMEONE GETS HURT. I'VE BEEN LUCKY SO FAR TO BE ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE SAFELY, OR IT OCCURS WHILE STOPPED. *TR
