how do you activate the immobilizer anyway...like if you come back to the parking lot and your car is gone...can you call GM to do it? or do you need Onstar?

my factory alarm works great,what I mean is if they make it past the alarm and try to TURN the car on they will have no success,anti-theft deterrennt 3 reconizes your key only and shuts it self down upon unrecinzed whatevers

haha but unfortuonetly its extremly easy to steal our cars. every once in a while actually alot of the while some will come in with keys stuck in the ignition and the cylinders are bad. so we replace the cylinder. but it takes all of 5 min's to get out with no special tools and once its out all you have to do is stick something in there and turn it, and it starts...
