Consumer Description

CAR WILL NOT START. NEED TO WAIT 10 MINUTES TO ATTEMPT START AGAIN. FAILURE IS LIKELY DUE TO FAULTY ANTI-THEFT SECURITY SYSTEM THAT READS THE IGNITION KEY INCORRECTLY BUT NOT SURE. SAFETY ISSUE IS 10 MINUTES IN THE HOT TEXAS SUMMER CAN MEAN INSTANT DEHYDRATION TO AN INFANT. I AM THE FATHER OF AN INFANT! SOME OTHER CHEVY MODEL OF THE SAME YEAR (2005) HAVE HAD THE IGNITION LOCK SWITCH REPLACED AND I BELIEVE THE SAME SHOULD BE DONE WITH THE 2005 CHEVY IMPALA. *TR
