2003 Pontiac Grand Am review from North America

Problems

1. The security light blinks and sometimes stays on.

2. Car not starting for no apparent reason.

Fix.

After surfing the Internet I found these two problems related and a simple fix if you don't want to pay to fix it properly. It seems there is a glitch in the computer or something.

1. Try to start car after seeing car doesn't start...

2. Turn key back to ACC (not all the way off) let key sit in this position for 11 min or more (not under 11 min or it won't work)

3. Turn key to off position let key sit for 30 sec or more (not less than 30 sec or it won't work)

4. Try to restart car I find it usually works on 1st attempt, but the Internet says this can be repeated 4 times and you should be able to start car.

I love this car otherwise it is very comfortable, and handles great in summer or winter!
