I was driving home from work when the security light came on the dash and a "service anti theft system" message came on the radio. The entire dash quit working, radio went off, power steering stopped working and I was driving without knowing how fast I was going or what was going on. After I got the car home and parked it, I shut it off and came inside. When I went out the next morning to start it, nothing happened. The dash lights up, everything works but the gas gauge and temperature gauge, but the car doesn't start or even attempt to turn over. The security message and service air bag message shows on the radio. I was told that it may be the key so I purchased a new one from moses cadillac and attempted it but a new message came up "ignition start disabled, remove key." I can't do anything with it, the entire car is locked up and won't start so I can't even get it to the dealer to be looked at. When you're in it and turn the key on all the doors lock, you can hear the fuel pump start, and nothing else. The key locks itself into the ignition, I had to access the manual release to get it out of the car.

Dt*: the contact stated there are several things wrong with the vehicle. The check coolant light and the check engine light illuminated on the dashboard. The dealership determined the radiator was damage and attempted to repair the radiator four times. The first three repairs performed by the dealer in an attempt to repair the radiator were unavailable. The fourth time, the dealership determined the problem was with the water pump and the water pump was replaced. The fuel pump was also found to be defective and was replaced. The check engine light illuminated on the dashboard prior to the fuel pump problems. The drive shaft was defective causing the vehicle to become inoperative. The crs light illuminated in the vehicle. There was an unknown part replaced to repair the crs light. The driver's power window worked intermittently making a grinding noise and the dealer repaired the window. The wiring was in backwards on the passenger seat causing only half of the seat to move. The dealership corrected the wiring to repair the seat.
