2001 Chevrolet Malibu complaints

CAR ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS DON'T WORK WHEN CAR IS STARTED THEN BEGIN WORKING SOMETIME AFTER THE CAR IS RUNNING 5-15 MINUTES. GAUGES, RADIO, AC, FAN, DO NOT WORK AND I AM WORRIED THE AIRBAGS ARE ALSO NOT WORKING. I SEE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE ON THE INTERNET (HTTP://REPAIRPAL.COM/NO-START-DUE-TO-FAILED-PASSLOCK-SENSOR-300). I SEE THE RECALL FOR REPLACING KEYS BUT THIS IS THE IGNITION SWITCH THAT IS FAILING.
