2003 Pontiac Grand Am

**THIS IS NOT A STANDARD 2003 PONTIAC, SINGLE OWNER CURRENT MILEAGE OF 70,000** UPON VEHICLE REACHING OPERATING TEMPERATURE IT EXHIBITS THE SYMPTOMS OF RECALL #04092 124/ ACCELERATOR PEDAL ARM.FAILURE RESULTS IN LOSS OF RPM AND SPEED CONTROL.THIS ITEM WAS ADDRESSED ON 1-11-2004 BY APPROVED DEALER. CAR LAST FAILURE OCCURRENCE WAS ON 1/12/2020. THIS VEHICLE WAS ALSO INCLUDED IN RECALL#14350 IGNITION SWITCH. WHEN FAILURE OCCURS LOSS OF POWER,SPEED,AIR BAGS,ECT.. INITIAL RECALL REPAIR WAS ON 3-07-2014. AT THAT TIME A NEW KEY WAS CUT TO RESOLVE ISSUE. FAILURE HAS REOCCURED, LAST TIME BEING 12-23-19 WHILE DRIVING MID DAY NO EXCESSIVE TEMP OR DRIVING CONDITIONS.

MY CAR HAVES A SECURITY SENSOR, THAT PREVENTS THE CAR NOT TO START UP,I HAVE TO PUT THE IGNITION KEY TO THE ACC AND THEN THE SECURITY LIGHT WILL BLINK FOR 15 TO 20 MINUTES , AFTER THAT THE BLINKING WILL RESET IT SELF I THEN TURN THE IGNITION KEY TO THE OFF POSITION AND THEN TURN THE KEY TO THE ON OR RUN AND THE ENGINE WOULD START UP.IS THERE A WAY TO FIX THIS PROBLEM ! THIS IS GOING ON EVERY OTHER DAY. I WILL PUT THE KEY IN AND THE CAR WILL NOT START

CAR WOULD NOT START AT ALL WHEN I CAME OUT OF WORK TONIGHT. I HAD NO WARNING LIGHTS (IN THE PAST THIS CAR HAS BEEN VERY GOOD WITH SHOWING WHAT NEEDED TO BE DONE). I CALLED THE SECURITY GUARD FROM MY PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT WHO TRIED TO JUMP MY BATTERY FOR 40 MINUTES BEFORE REALIZING IT WAS NOT THE BATTERY. MY EMERGENCY LIGHT WOULD FLICKER A FEW TIMES AND THE KEY SEEMED TO BE STUCK IN THE IGNITION. I HAD TO JIGGLE IT FOR ABOUT A MINUTE BEFORE IT WOULD TURN, BUT NO SOUNDS WOULD COME FROM THE CAR. THIS WAS NOT ONLY INCONVENIENT, BUT ALSO DANGEROUS AS THE CAR WAS PERFECTLY FINE WHEN I LEFT IT IN THE PARKING LOT BEFORE WORK.

I HAVE TO DO THIS EVERYTIME I START THE CAR. TURN MY KEY TO THE "ON" POSITION, AND WAIT TEN MINUTES THEN TURN THE KEY TO START IT, AND IT WILL START AFTER THE 2ND OR 3RD ATTEMPT AT THIS. MY SISTER BOUGHT THE CAR FOR ME IN JULY 2013, AND IT WAS STARTING FINE BEFORE OCTOBER, THEN AFTER OCTOBER, WHEN I GO SOMEWHERE, TURN OFF THE CAR, AND HAVE TO TURN THE KEY ON AND LET IT SIT FOR 10 MINUTES, AND THE CAR STARTS RIGHT OFF. HAVE A WARRANTY ON IT. BOUGHT THE CAR AT NISSAN OF NEWPORT NEWS, VA. I MOVED TO LYCHBURG VA AND MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH PINKERTON CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP SERVICE CENTER FOR FEB. 2, 2014. I AM ON A FIXED INCOME, AND MY SISTER IS PAYING OFF THE CAR. *TR
