Cobalt LS

  • Automatic transmission
  • 76,000 miles

I read one comment on here. and thats basically what my car does. When it started getting cold outside or raining when i used my remote to unlock it wouldn't do anything. I went to start it and nothing. Then when I slammed the trunk because that's where the battery is, the alarm starts going off and it starts right up. It does this all the time. Then some times my doors won't shut or open. I've got stuck in my car a few times. Then the other day I beat on the dash board to get the alarm to go off and it started. Get to the end of the drive way and it just died. Everything went blank. IF anybody knows what to do please help.

The car now thinks it has an alarm on it even though it doesn't!! when you open the doors the panic sound goes off untill you hit the unlock button on the remote!! sure hope i don't loose the f%&^& remote or it will beep till the battery goes F%&& dead!! also the clock on the factory radio never keeps time shorts out and cds don't eject with out using a cd to remove the cd it gets F%%^& stuck!! I hate this CAR!!
