Pontiac Grand Am Electrical System Ignition Anti-theft Controller Safety Report | Sept 01, 2008
Reported on Sept 01, 2008
| A LOCAL PONTIAC DEALERSHIP WORKED ON MY CAR FOR UNRELATED ISSUES. WHEN I WENT TO PICK UP MY CAR, THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT FIND MY KEYS. I HAD TO GET A SPARE SET OF KEYS FROM MY HOME AND FINALLY PICK UP MY CAR. AFTER THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED, I NOTICED THE SECURITY LIGHT WOULD COME ON RANDOMLY. EVENTUALLY, IT WOULD NOT START. ALSO ON A RANDOM BASIS. THIS HAS HAPPENED COUNTLESS TIMES AND I AM ABSOLUTELY FRUSTRATED. IT IS NOW HAPPENING ON A WEEKLY BASIS. I CAN'T AFFORD FOR THIS TO HAPPEN ANY LONGER. THE PONTIAC DEALERSHIP HAS ADVISED ME THAT IT WILL COST $400+ FOR THIS TO BE FIXED. AGAIN, I AM UNABLE TO DO THAT. I KEEP VERY GOOD MAINTENANCE ON MY CAR AND THIS IS OUT OF MY CONTROL. I HAVE RE-SET THE PASSLOCK SYSTEM AS THE PONTIAC DEALERSHIP HAS ADVISED ME TO AND NOW IT IS HAPPENING MORE OFTEN. THIS IS RIDICULOUS AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO DEAL WITH A SITUATION LIKE THIS. *TR | |
