While driving this car it would just stall or die as if someone had reached over and shut the car off and would not start for a few days. I have brought this car to two mechanics and neither were able to stop the problem but told me that different parts were the culprit, so 800 dollars later I have replaced the fuel filter, fuel pump, crank shaft position sensor, mass air flow sensor,replaced the battery, tested the alternator, tested the fuel injectors both hot and cold, tested the ignition module and still the car died leaving my child and I stranded on the side of the freeway in cold temperatures. I then called a gm dealership whom said another 120. 00 just to look at it and said they couldnt find the problem . This is outragous!.
Body control module, pass lock sensor, ignition switch. Will not allow car to start correctly often not at all. If research is done there is thousands of complaints on gm vehicles with this system having the same recurring problem. Gm refuses to admit that this is an issue with this system. I have not personally had a injury caused by this problem but the potential for an injury is there. If I can not start my vehicle because of this problem it can and has left me in a position that is potentially hazardous.
The security system came on while driving and shut the automobile down. Chevrolet put in a body control module in 08-12-03. On 01-15-2004, while attempting to start, vehicle shut down. This time the driver was locked inside the vehicle. The door locks did not release, and the key did not come out of the ignition.
