I am not able to start the truck most of the time. It goes into a safety mode and i have to wait 10 minutes. Thankfully my family has not been injured yet due to this but i don't think it should come down to injury. Their is lots of complaints about gm's passlock system and it is very dangerous.

While driving the pass code anti-theft light came on. Parked at destination and three hours later returned to vehicle. Opened the vehicle with a key rather than the fob, vehicle would not start. The panel also indicated low fuel, but the tank was full. Waited two hours, hoping that it would reset. Vehicle still would not start.

Upon looking under the rubber wire protection…
