Mcgusto82 Posted November 24, 2012 Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 (edited) Maybe there should be a way to set how the vehicle behaves when you exit the car with the keys. If you can accidentally leave the car with the keys and your spouse drives off with it, they can also accidentally shut the car off and now they are stranded far from you either way. Same way someone can force you out of your car and drive off with your kids in it. I'd like yo be able to shut off the car with the remote, or have it shut off after a set amount of time. The technology and hardware is there, and I'd rather use it for safety rather than convineance. People have died from Carbon monoxide poisoning from leaving their cars running in garages, no one has died from forgetting their keys.

JoBaker Posted November 29, 2016 Report Share Posted November 29, 2016 DO NOT take the button off your starter switch. The salesman told me to do this and it isn't supposed to come off. I of course broke it and it costs $400.00 to replace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For what purpose? Edited November 30, 2016 by jkeaton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You KNOW the answer . . . . people who are too lazy to read the owner's manual and who listen to what salesmen say. jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
