My Anti theft computer on my car has shorted out and the computer locked out my car's starter cause it thinks it has been stolen? So it will not start. This the second time this anti theft computer has done this to me. I would like to know if I can request a GMC repair shop to remove this anti theft device from my car? I really wanted disabled or removed...this is the second time this happened and I don't want to fix it cause I know it will happen again...Can they fix it the way I want them to?
