    Dont all cars still have physical keys (necessary for dead batteries)?

    And don’t all cars have a switch to turn off wireless keys?

      I can most assuredly tell you that that is not the case, my vehicle does have a physical key hidden away in the fob, it however only unlocks the driver side door, that’s it.

          Ok cool, I have entered my vehicle with the key alone, there is no possible way to start it without the fob. Save possibly a flipper,

            Usually theres a place to insert the fob, then press Start

            This works without a battery. Its passive.

              Well for me it does not, hell my car doesn’t even have a oil or transmission dipstick, they have taken those away and run the info through the infotainment console.
