[QUOTE="Kls9036, post: 30177, member: 11453"] I recently started the car remotely (can't remember if I used the fob or the app, if it matters). When I went to the car I had some packages to put in the cargo area, which opens automatically if the fob is nearby. I put the packages in, along with my purse containing the fob and my phone, and closed the lift lid. Thinking the car is now unlocked with the fob being in it, I went to the drivers door, and surprise, the door is locked. The lift lid also won't open now, nor any of the other doors. Fortunately I have another fob in the house so I used that to unlock the car. But what if I hadn't been home? I'll of course avoid this scenario in the future (which I'm pretty darn sure I have done in the past with no problem, such as short trips where I know I won't need my purse along the way and also know that I'll need to access the cargo area anyway when I reach my destination) but what would be my options if I didn't have that 2nd fob handy? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
