Perfectly nice running car, rode good, good gas milage. I had driven to relatives for thanksgiving dinner. However, when we started to leave car would not start, and the theft light was blinking. Have had it in three different shops including the dealership. New everything on the market, including a new computer. Still won't start.

Service anti theft and starting disabled. NO START. Towed to BUICK DEALER. First told nothing wrong, go to pick up. WON'T START. haha Week later, told needed anti theft module, still WON'T START. Then told need new BCM. Works for a week. Towed again. Told need two wires, fixed for two days. TOWED AGAIN. Fixed again for three days. Wouldn't say what they did, MECHANIC NOT AVAILABLE.

Five times now since February in THE BUICK DEALER. Back again, needs an anti theft module. REALLY... GM HAS BEEN NO HELP. SORRY NO WARRANTY, USED CAR ETC ETC ETC. SO BETWEEN THE BUICK DEALER AND GM, NO ONE CAN FIX THIS SERVICE ANTI THEFT STARTING DISABLED?????????????????? Was told by another local mechanic he can't help because GM WON'T SHARE ANTI THEFT INFORMATION. Gee thanks. ANYBODY HAVE SAME PROBLEM AND A SOLUTION???
