Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The intelligent key is not being recognized by the vehicle. Acts as if the key is not within the reading range. This causes the doors to stay locked/unlocked when using the fob. Also, the ignition will not turn even though the fob is in the car. The actual key has to be removed from the fob in order to operate the vehicle.”

“I purchased a new 2007 Nissan quest and had the remote start option installed, which was an audiovox as-9076 when inspecting the vehicle, I found that with the remote start package installed, it was possible to use the lock/unlock buttons on the doors to start the vehicle without the key. …”
