Every NEWROCKIES customer has a story that starts the same way — a GM car that suddenly won't start, or dies seconds after cranking. Below are their stories: real Passlock, VATS, and PassKey failures across Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Oldsmobile, GMC, Pontiac, Saturn, Isuzu, and how the NEWROCKIES PRO Module brought each car back for good. New stories are added as customers send them in — if yours isn't here yet, tell us about it.
A shop had the Allante for eight months. The dealer refused to touch it. Steve was the last chance in a line of failure, and this is how he won.
Scott spent $800 replacing the security system, then $100 on a cheap bypass that lasted a week. What finally ended two years of no-starts.
An 87 year old man, a Camaro IROC bought new in 1989, 120,000 faultless miles. Four mechanics failed. His grandson fixed it in 15 minutes.
A missionary three hours from the nearest Honduran city, with a truck that had stopped starting. One chance to get it right, 35 minutes to fix.
Rasheeda inherited her mother's Oldsmobile Alero after losing her to cancer. Then the Passlock system started stranding her. This is how she got the car back.
Eric fitted a PRO Module to his 2003 Avalanche in July 2014. He was still recommending it to friends in February 2017. Why a Passlock bypass does not degrade.
A 1992 Oldsmobile Toronado that kept stranding its owner's wife at work, a failed aftermarket remote start buried in the column wiring, and a 40 minute fix.
A mechanic bought a 385,000 km Cavalier for $500 and fixed everything on it except the theft lock. The odometer now reads over 405,000 km.
Dan's 2005 Yukon XL stranded him with two hungry toddlers and a blinking security light. One email to support and thirty seconds fixed his install for good.
Two summers stranded in the heat with a young child, and nobody believed her VATS diagnosis, including her mechanic father. Cassandra was right.
Mark's Suburban install failed twice: a dead starter, then start-and-die all over again. The real cause was a harness that had fallen out of the EVO module.
John Kucil imported Corvettes into Australia and had been soldering resistors into key wires for years. After one PRO Module on a 1988, he stopped for good.
A perfect engine, held hostage by a pellet of plastic. How VATS strands C3 and C4 Corvettes, four owners who removed it for good, and the wiring for every year.
Jim's 1988 C4 had no fault at all. His dash was already apart, so he removed the VATS system before it could ever strand him.
A Vermont workshop chased an intermittent no-start on a 1988 Corvette for weeks. They fitted the PRO Module, then opened a ticket just to say thank you.
David's 1986 Corvette spent a year off the road because of the VATS system. It took one module and one stubborn afternoon to bring it back.
The 2,200-ohm resistor trick is the cheapest GM Passlock fix online, and the most likely to strand you again. Here's why it stops working.
VATS, PassKey, Passlock or PassKey III? Identify your GM anti-theft system from the key, the symptoms and the model year.
Regina S.'s 1997 Oldsmobile 88 wouldn't start due to a failing PassKEY system. She installed the NEWROCKIES PRO Module herself and fixed it for good.
Noreen's 2006 Chevy Colorado had a random no-start for years. The PRO Module fixed it in time for her daughter's trip to college.
