I would call the service department @ Vic Canevers & ask them, but isn't the Vibe part of the Pontiac line of vehicles? Also if you want to get a new car, or used i'd recommend asking for Larry Lewis, he can work out a good deal for you. That's my salesmen that i buy from for the last 20 yrs. He's a great person.
Yes it needs to be programmed to the car to work.
