Default funny incident

you guys aint gonna believe this but guess what .... if you have a camaro or transam you can steal a pontiac grand am my g/f locked her keys in her 2000 grand am at my house and after 5 minutes decided to try my trans am keys and they unlocked her car lol, so if you ever need to steal a car if there happens to be a grand am close by and you have your f-body keys you can get into their car with your keys of course you would steal have to hotwire thier car lol.....
I in no way am saying you should steal someone else's car or attempt to, i just posted this up cause i thought it was funny that i could open another car with my car keys

Sounds like the cylinder was replaced at some point in time and they left all the tumblers out. I've seen stuff like that before. See if you can unlock it with a flat blade screw driver.

They may be able to open it, but it aint going to start unless the key has the right chip in it!
