This happened to me today: Went to start my car after school and it chugged for a second, then fired off and the anti-theft light (amber lock symbol) stayed on. Turned it off and fired it up again, this time normal and went about my way. This ever happened to anyone else?

I am not worried about it, just like to see what makes the world go round.

 

This have happened to me about twice. I think is a gremlin from the HHR.

 

It use to happen on my first HHR. If you are hitting the highway or driving hard, let it run for ten seconds or so before you turn it off. The anit theft light didn't ever come on though, so I'm confused about that part. Hope this helps.
