Uh oh. That's not good. Hopefully it's an easy fix and it's just a freak incident. Good luck.

well, they towed it to the dealer... unfortunately they got it to the dealer at 545 and they close at 6 on saturdays...so they won't work on it until monday.

they think its the security system freaking out and locking out the key for some reason. I hope it get it back tomorrow and its just a simple reprogram something in the vehicle.

anyone else had this problem?

A few guys have had problems with the key if they dont have it fully opened up.

If they ARE going to reprogram it, you HAVE to get your second key fob to the dealer. IF not, they will have to reprogram it again.

what do you mean fully opened up? like the switch blade part of it all the open and locked in position?
if so...i opened it up and closed it a few times...and the remote start wouldn't work either.

thanks though

Did you try the other key?
