Pontiac Grand Am Electrical System Ignition Anti-theft Controller Safety Report | Dec 10, 2006
Reported on Dec 10, 2006
| GM'S ANTI THEFT DEVICE PASSLOCK 1 SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONS AND THE CAR WILL NOT START. ONCE IT STARTS TO MALFUNCTION, IT WILL GET WORSE OVER TIME. I SEE THIS AS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS PROBLEM. SO FAR IT HAS ONLY BEEN A FRUSTRATING PROBLEM. WE CALLED THE LOCAL DEALER ABOUT THE PROBLEM, AND THEY SAID THEY COULD FIX IT AT A COST OF $450.00 . I THINK GM SHOULD STEP UP AND ADMIT A PROBLEM AND CORRECT IT. THERE ARE SEVERAL FORUMS ON THE INTERNET COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM. THIS HAS BECOME A 2 AND 3 TIMES A DAY PROBLEM, PRETTY MUCH HAPPEN EVERY TIME WE TRY TO USE THE CAR. *JB | |
