Consumer Description

I WAS TRYING TO REMOTE START MY 2012 MALIBU IN THE MORNING BUT IT DIDN'T START. INSTEAD MY CAR WAS DOING A CLICKING NOISE AND MY HEADLIGHTS WHERE BLINKING. ONCE THAT STOPPED I WAS ABLE TO UNLOCK MY CAR AND THEN MY CAR WOULDN'T START AND THE ANTI THEFT LOCK LIGHT SHOWS UP ON MY DASH BOARD TOOK ME ABOUT 15 MINUTES TO START MY CAR MY CHECK ENGINE GOES ON AND OFF ALSO. I CHECKED ON LINE AND HAVE READ THAT CHEVROLET OWNERS HAVE BEEN HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I'VE DONE MY BEST TO TAKE CARE OF MY CAR AND ITS NOT AN OLD CAR WITH ALOT OF MILES ON IT. I'VE ALREADY HAD TO PAY TO CHANGE A SENSOR ON IT AND NOW THIS BEFORE SOMETHING REALLY BAD HAPPENS . I'M REGRETTING HAVING MY DAD COSIGN FOR MY MALIBU.
