my security light is staying on

Hello, this indicates an "anti-theft" system issue - either it's triggered or there's something wrong. Being that this vehicle utilizes the "PASS key system", it requires a key programmed to the vehicle to properly start, unless there is a key or vehicle problem preventing it. A trained tech will be helpful to step in and resolve the concern. Use this link to find some shops near you that can help with your concern: www.repairpal.com/repair-shops
