Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I own a chevrolet malibu,1997 model and every time i go out to start it, i vehicle will start and then die. i will have to continue to start it at least 6 times before it will start and stay running. i have taken my vehicle to mechanics and they don't seem to know what is the problem. the last mechanic i took it to called a gm garage and they said that it was the theft lock system. i kindly suggest that this part be recalled, because in talking with the gm garage they mentioned that they were seeing a lot of the same problem.*ak
