Sorry to hear about this problem. Unfortunately this is a classic GM antitheft system failure. Believe it or not, this is very common and can be very expensive to take to a mechanic. Do yourself a favor, go to this link and study up in this system. There is alot of information here and you should be able to learn what's going on. There are also some ways to fix this problem yourself at a much cheaper cost.

I just had this to happen to me - here's what you do - when it will not crank - turn your key over to ACC and let it stay on here for 15 minutes, the THEFT SYSTEM light will stop flashing. Turn your key back to OFF then turn it over as normal when starting and it will start right back up! Found it out from an auto store! One lady paid over $700 and then found this out!!!

If its an antitheft problem, there will be a light that comes on the dash that says SECURITY, This light will come on right after it shuts off. If you see that light, this link will help you.
