The passlock can only be reset by the computer at the dealership. You will have to bring proof of ownership to them along with the car and it will cost you around $40. 00 to have it reset.

This is something to see the dealer or a Pontiac authorized repair shop about. The PassKey system is completely computerized and therefore requires expert attention. If it is the key that is the problem that should be an easy fix, but if the locks are the problem it may get expensive.
