Your vehicle may have
a content theft-deterrent
alarm system. If your
vehicle has remote
keyless entry, then it
has content

Me too.... But Howdy is correct, I think that is the only one with the HHR factory. Anything else would be afternarket.

PASS-Key® III+
The PASS-Key® III+ system operates on a radio
frequency subject to Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) Rules and with Industry Canada.

This device complies with RSS-210 of Industry Canada.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

2. This device must accept any interference received,

Changes or modifications to this system by other than

PASS-Key® III+ uses a radio frequency transponder in
the key that matches a decoder in your vehicle.

PASS-Key® III+ Operation
Your vehicle has PASS-Key® III+ (Personalized
Automotive Security System) theft-deterrent system.
PASS-Key® III+ is a passive theft-deterrent system.
This means you do not have to do anything special to
arm or disarm the system. It works when you insert
or remove the key from the ignition.
When the PASS-Key® III+ system senses that someone
is using the wrong key, it prevents the vehicle from
starting. Anyone using a trial-and-error method to start
the vehicle will be discouraged because of the high
number of electrical key codes.

This is a dumb question, but when would the theft alarm go off? Ken and a friend shook our car and nothing happened. Does someone actually have to break the door lock or monkey with the ignition for it to go off? We had anti theft on our Saturn and someone broke the window on the driver side while Ken was hiking North Mountain and nothing happened, no alarm, no beeping, and the alarm was set. No one tried to steal the car, they were just looking for wallets and purses to steal. Cars get broken into weekly at North Mountain, but not to steal the car, they're just looking for money, thinking hikers might leave wallets behind.
