There is an internal GM notice about this, something about a bad ground in the A Pillar that affects how far the signal can travel.

I think there's a fix or something to try and get some extended range. I really don't know if mine sucks or not I'm usually in fairly close proximity when I use mine, so it doesn't bother me.

Is it only Montes and Imps that have this issue? I park way the fck at the very last stall at the school parking lot, as soon as I come out of a building I'll hit the remote start and it works. Must be a good 50 yards away at least, I'm sure its more.

That doesn't make sense though...since you have to hit the lock button first before you remote start. If it's not picking up you locking/unlocking the remote start shouldn't work either. Unless you mean your locks physically don't work. But I interpreted it as you just can't unlock and lock from the same place you start.

There is another TSB on this. Redesigned remotes, antenna, and reciever. I just got it last week. Try zapping the car at the right rear quarter, you should have the worst range there.
