I GOT ON THE INTERNET TO SEE IF ANYONE ELSE WAS HAVING A PROBLEM. I FOUND THAT MOST ALL CHEVY'S FROM THE YEAR 1998 TO 2005 ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. ONE PERSON SAID THAT IS ALARM SET ITSELF WHILE ON THE FREEWAY DOING 60 MPH SHUT ITSELF OFF. IF THAT'S NOT A SAFETY HAZARD I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS. I WOULD NOT WANT THAT TO HAPPEN TO ME. CAN SOME ONE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS THEFT ALARM SYSTEM CHEVY IS PUTTING IN THEIR CARS? IT'S VERY FRUSTRATING. I COULD ONLY WISH SOME ONE WOULD STEAL THE CAR.
