GM VATS/PASSLOCK SYSTEM SHUTS DOWN VEHICLES ANYTIME, ANYWHERE, WITHOUT WARNING....EVEN IN -10 DEGREE TEMPS IN BLIZZARD CONDITIONS TEN MILES FROM THE NEAREST HOUSE. THE DEALERS SOAK PEOPLE FOR $600 - $1200 TO REPLACE FUEL PUMPS, KEY CYLINDERS, ECMS AND BCMS BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. YOUR ORGANIZATION SHOWS A POST FOR A FEW DROPS OF OIL WHILE BRAKING BUT THIS PASSKEY ISSUE IS A DANGER TO ANYONE WHO OWNS A 1999-2005 GM VEHICLE. THE CAR JUST STOPS RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE THRUWAY, DURING RUSH HOUR, IN SOME CASES. THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM AND GM REFUSES TO ISSUE A RECALL OR EVEN OFFER A RELIABLE SOLUTION THAT WE'RE MORE THAN WILLING TO PAY FOR. OUR CARS TURN INTO LAWN ORNAMENTS AND THAT'S ABOUT ALL. *TR
