The passlock anti-theft device keeps my vehicle from starting thinking it's being stolen.. disabling the fuel pump.. this is a safety issue and has also made me late for work several times and stranded. It started occurring this year July 22, 2017 with no prior incidents. It's occurring on a regular interval and it's getting to the point that I cant rely on my vehicle to start as normal. Please let there be a recall on getting the manufacturer General Motors to fix this on my Colorado as it's the only fault on this vehicle. The faulty passlock systems should be a recalled item since it will disable the fuel pump and having to wait 10 minutes for the the system to reset at unknown or unsafe places. I am a single mother with two kids and I rely on my vehicle to commute to and from school and work. Luckily the incidents have occurred at work, at home, at walmart parking lot.. but who knows when the system decided as it gets worst. My seventeen year old son has taken the vehicle out and I'm always worried about this safety due to this faulty passlock anti-theft device. The vehicle has 181,450 miles, no check engine lights show on dash.. other than this issue.. it's the only reason the vehicle is mostly parked in my driveway.. only myself will take the drive it for short distances. I wish and hope to have the manufacturer render a needed recall on this passlock anti-theft device system....updated 10/04/17
Re: fuel - nipple (male) coming out of top of gas tank disconnected from )female) gas line leading to engine. Fire hazard. Re: electronics - vehicle anti-theft system (vats) this is a constant reoccurring problem, causing numerous unexpected delays in cranking vehicle. Should be eliminated, disconnected, recalled by GM. Both issues happen while car is stationary and during cranking.re:
