THERE ARE NO EVENTS LEADING UP TO THE PASSLOCK SECURITY SYSTEM LEAVING A MOTORIST STRANDED AT ANY GIVEN TIME. THE FAILURE HAPPENS AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK LEAVING THE DRIVER STRANDED AT WHATEVER LOCATION HE/SHE CUTS THE CAR OFF. SOMETIMES IT WILL BE 5MIN BEFORE THE ALARM WILL RESET AND SOMETIMES IT WILL BE DAYS LEAVING THE MOTORIST WITHOUT A VEHICLE. NOTHING DONE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM BECAUSE IN THIS INSTANCE THE ALARM WON'T RESET SO THE ONLY ALTERNATIVE I WAS GIVEN BY A GM DEALERSHIP IS TO HAVE THE SYSTEM DISCONNECTED. *TR

2005 CHEVY IMPALA OFTEN TIMES THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE SECURITY LIGHT ON THE DASH BLINKS, AND, AFTER I WAIT ABOUT 10 MINUTES, IT WILL START. UPON SEARCHING THE INTERNET FOR A SOLUTION IT IS OBVIOUS THAT GM KNOWS THERE ARE PROBLEMS WITH THEIR "PASS-LOCK" ANTI THEFT SYSTEM BUT WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE IT OR REPAIR IT FOR ANYONE. MY MECHANIC REPLACED THE BATTERY AND FOUND NO OTHER PROBLEMS. SUGGESTS I TAKE IT TO GM DEALER. *TR
