Consumer Description

MY 2000 CHEVY IMPALA DECIDES NOT TO START ON SOME DAYS. AT FIRST, IT WAS VERY INFREQUENT AND NOW ITS HAPPENING MORE AND MORE OFTEN. WHEN I TURN THE KEY TO START MY CAR, THE ONLY THING THAT HAPPENS IS THE SECURITY LIGHT TURNS ON. AFTER ABOUT 10 MINUTES THE MY CAR SUDDENTLY STARTS UP AGAIN. FROM WHAT I READ ONLINE AND ON YOUTUBE, THIS PROBLEM IS NOTORIOUS WITH A LOT OF GM VEHICLES. NOT A LOT OF MECHANICS KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS AND I DONT HAVE THE TIME OR MONEY TO HAVE IT SERVICED MULTIPLE TIMES. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS OBVIOUS MALFUNCTION. I KNOW THAT MY NEXT CAR WILL NOT BE A GM.
