Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“This is basically why I am concerned: I found that if you go to lock/unlock your car with a toyota/Scion smart key while someone within range of your car holds the lock/unlock button on their toyota/Scion smart key, your car will not respond to your own key. Their signal basically just interferes with your signal causing the car to do nothing. If you walk away w/o noticing, your car will be completely defenseless. No lock. No alarm. In my test, I held my key button about 60 feet away from my dads car and it interfered with his key causing his car not to lock. This also worked vice-versa. …”
