Passlock®(U.S. Only)
Your vehicle has the Passlock theft-deterrent system.
Passlock is a passive theft-deterrent system that enables
fuel if the ignition lock cylinder is turned with a valid key. If
a correct key is not used or the ignition lock cylinder has
been tampered with, the fuel system is disabled and the
vehicle will not start.
During normal operation, the security light will turn off
about ve seconds after the key is turned to ON/RUN.
If the engine stalls and the security light ashes, wait
about 10 minutes until the light stops ashing before
trying to restart the engine. Remember to release the key
from START as soon as the engine starts.
If the engine does not start after three tries, the vehicle
needs service.
If the engine is running and the security light comes on,
you will be able to restart the engine if you turn the engine
off. However, your Passlock system is not working
properly and must be serviced by your dealer/retailer.
Your vehicle is not protected by Passlock at this time.
You may also want to check the fuse. SeeFuses and
Circuit Breakers on page 5-113. See your dealer/retailer
for service.
In an emergency, call the Roadside Assistance Center.
