Keyless entry is one of the most attractive features in cars today. It allows you to get into your cars without digging around in the bottom of a purse for your keys or fishing them out of deep pockets, adding a layer of convenience that is unmatched in modern driving.
Couple that with the convenience of keyless ignition and you can even start your car without ever retrieving your keys. The key only needs to be in close proximity. This convenience, though, comes at the price of greater risks of vehicle theft. The good news is that new developments are making keyless entry less accessible to thieves, protecting your car and the investment you’ve made in it.
