- Passlock/VATS Bypass - This site sells a part that will bypass your defective passlock system. You are not alone because many many people have been kept out of thier OWN cars because of this defective system. This part will bypass the whole system so you never have trouble again. It is much cheaper than taking it to a dealer. Worth a look for sure.

My car had been randomly not starting for the past year. When I turned the key all lights and power come on, but just wouldn't start. After it sat for 30-60 minutes (sometimes hours) it would just start. Battery-fine. Starter replaced. Still problems. I finally took it to the dealer and they said it was a faulty Body Control Module which they replaced for $397. (They said the car wasn't recognizing my key so the computer shut the car down because it thought it was being stolen.) I got the car home and 2 days later guess what... wouldn't start!! I took it back in and then they told me it was a bad sensor in the steering column. (which they replaced for free) I just got it back yesterday so not sure if that fixed the problem or not.
