      hotsweetness99 For purely mechanical ignitions it is absolutely true. Only a digital key can stop that, and if they key is already digital you might as well go wireless. More people leave their keys in the car than throw them out of the window. A wireless key can stay secure in your pocket avoiding both problems while being harder to steal. Most car thefts these days are of older cars with mechanical ignitions.

      Quinten Robinson My brother did that once with his 2014 Nissan Sentra. I nearly fainted, I was so shocked. He said it was ok though, he is a mechanic so I took his word for it. I have a 1998 Ford Ranger and I would never dare fill it up while it's on. Maybe it's the newer cars that can handle that.

  • @damemes3669
    @damemes3669 Před 7 lety +2

    One thing that I would like to see tested. From my knowledge, a key-less entry/fob works very similar to a garage door opener. All wireless openers have their own different code, when the button is pressed that code is transmitted which the opener itself picks up, verifies the code, then open/closes the door. The fob on AutoVlog's vehicle should work the same way except that the code is constantly being transmitted over a very short range. The car's anti-theft system is build on being able to pick up the fob's signal in order to use the vehicle. This is perfect for most car thieves, but since that fob's signal is being constantly transmitted, it can be picked up by anyone. I suspect that if you can extract the fob's code, you can ignore most of the car's safety features and allow for the vehicle's theft much more easily.
    I hope I have given you an idea for a future video AutoVlog, I like your videos. :)

  • @ewiem4351

    A thief would only need to junp in and start the car with 10-15 seconds. Looks like new cars are Gone in Fifteen Seconds instead of Sixty.

    • @joshjones5172
      @joshjones5172 Před 7 lety +3

      actually how they have been stealing them is even cooler. One method was basically an amplifier for the signal coming from the car, now your car detected the key from your house. thief just gets in and pushes the start button.

    • @grahamcouture6786
      @grahamcouture6786 Před 7 lety

      Ewie M and that's why I have a garage. It doesn't really solve the problem though since none of the vehicles in it have push button start.

    • @ajmorgan591
      @ajmorgan591 Před 7 lety +3

      Ewie M, this is not the case (at least not with the Fusion; I can't speak for other vehicles). As soon as either the driver's door or the front-seat passenger's door is opened after shutting down the engine, the car completely powers down (the equivalent of removing the key from a traditional ignition). The only way to start it again in this case is with the fob inside the vehicle. In other words, there is no grace period within which the car can be restarted without the fob if a door has been opened. The dude in this video didn't open his door after shutting down the engine, and hence had the option to restart the engine without the fob inside the car.

    • @T1Oracle

    • @ewiem4351
      @ewiem4351 Před 7 lety +2

      A screwdriver works if the car has a standard key. A computerized starting system that requires a key fob is another matter. You can't just pry that button off and touch two wires to start the car.

  • @johna8999
    @johna8999 Před 7 lety +12

    What's annoying is that they're not giving you an alternative to these Smart keys with the modern cars. It's good that you are taking the time to show us these scenarios because the manufacturers certainly aren't making it clear what happens.

    • @441meatloaf
      @441meatloaf Před 7 lety +1

      Why would they? If you break or lost the key they can just charge you an expensive and annoying process to give you a new key. Literally the dealership will need to send your VIN id and computer onboard the details to the manufacturer and they will have to reprogram a new fob.

    • @johna8999
      @johna8999 Před 7 lety

      @Aoru I was thinking more about safety than cost. These cars cut out to save fuel what happens if you're on a hill and you've lost your key? To me that's a dangerous situation especially if there are car behind you... at this point I'm not worried about the cost of a new fob.

    • @DareToBeDeviant
      @DareToBeDeviant Před 7 lety

    • @danwat1234
      @danwat1234 Před 7 lety

      The time it takes for a car engine equipped with auto start-stop to turn on again is way less than 1 second. It would probably have a hill hold feature for that split second time. In a hybrid though, you have the immediate power from the electric motor(s).

  • @gmr4765

    I love the feature how the keys don't have to be connected to the car however I also feel like it would be a good thing if the makers can put a chip for the fob because if you do suddenly lose it or your child throws it and you lost it then it would be a problem and if you can track the location where your key could be that would be a fantastic feature

  • @rccap100
    @rccap100 Před 7 lety

    i ask the dealer the same question and was told it does that because it would be the same as if the battery died in the fob while you were driving. also if the battery dies you can actually press the start button with the dead fob and it will start ( at least on a 2016 mazda it does). really enjoy your videos by the way. thanks

      @corradotox Před 7 lety

      Luke Wilmoth I think you're hitting the nail on the head. Nobody would willfully throw a key fob out of the window while driving. The feature is designed to check if the key is still in the car when you're driving away from a standstill and, as the video proved, it works fine for that. Why is it designed like this? Because the person who has the key can only leave the car when it's not running... it happened to me a couple of times: when I'm driving my wife's car, sometimes she is sitting in the passenger seat with the keys in her purse. She left the car taking the keys with her and the car told me right away (as soon as she closed the door), so I could catch the mistake in time.

      Yes, exactly. What happens if you have the RFID key, but the car refuses to recognize it, or interference prevents the RFID key code from being read? How do you override the security system with manual access? There's millions of these wireless, expensive RFID keys out there, and most of them are vulnerable to conditions that can cause temporary or permanent failure, in addition to stranding the occupants because the car won't start.

      well with push button start you don't have to grab your keys from your pocket, just leave them in there and press the start button so that's one plus. another thing is some people with heavy keychains tear up their ignition with the key in and that weight bouncing around. so thats another thing that can't happen with push button start

    • @RedFlaggWaving
      @RedFlaggWaving Před 7 lety +1

      Michael B I disagree with you on that one. If you're like most people, you'll get rid of your car way before you even have to worry about wear and tear on the key ignition. I would think a push-button start would suffer more wear because of the fact that we push it with our dirty grimy fingers. I've seen some cars (not push-button start cars) with the surface of some of the buttons rubbed off and unreadable, for example the cruise control.

    • @armchairgeneralissimo
      @armchairgeneralissimo Před 7 lety +2

      My car is 14 years old with 246k miles and the original key and ignition work perfectly fine so I wouldn't worry too much about wear and tear. When I used to work in a garage years ago nine times out of ten when a vehicle had an ignition key problem it was becuase the car key was on a ring with a ton of other keys and fobs hanging off it. All that weight dangling and bouncing around will soon mess up the barrel.

    • @George-nx4bp

      @TheSeanUhTron Před 7 lety +13

      That's the point. You don't have to take the key out of your pocket/purse/belt clip to unlock and start the car. This means you don't have to worry about leaving your keys in your car, because even if you do, you can still unlock the car. This also means people with heavy key chains do not have to worry about damaging the ignition cylinder or about the key chain scratching the material beneath it when it shakes around.

Meanwhile your car is stranded on the side of a road somewhere unless you pay to have it towed. In the old days you could just pull out a spare key from your wallet. Those keys only cost about $2.00 and you could have them made at any hardware store. Great video. Thanks for doing it.

    I've become so accustomed to using the push button start for the past four years, it's a little odd to scroll through these comments and see so many people opposed to it. All I have to do to unlock my car is touch the handle while my keys are hooked to my jeans. And just keep them there the whole time. That's all there is to it. It's not a huge major upgrade from the regular key, but it's still pretty convenient and it gets the job done. It all comes down to person preference though. I personally don't see myself going back. I'm sure the same will happen to some of you guys in the near future when this becomes more common.

For example (You just get done strapping your child into the car seat, as you turn around you notice a black van pull behind your car. you see a man walking towards you. You panic and get into your car and slam the door shut and lock the doors! You start the car but the van is behind you and the only thing in front of you is a wooden fence. You throw that bitch into drive and floor it into the fence to get away) Would the car stop or keep going?

      ItsYoureBasic. Exactly. Think about it. Chevy wouldn't be anything without ford. AMERICA NEVER HEARD OF THE CAR TILL IT WAS INVENTED. Technically Mercedes built the first moterized car/wagon. But no one in the world built an actual car, like ford did

      Please don't. Even a five years old with a brain understand what MUST happen in any of these "what happend if" videos. For instance, if the car stop just because the digital key fell off the car it would be irresponsible and hands down moronic. You could be in a snowy mountain. All electronic access control must function as a flip flop, thus needs active control for both on and off switching.

    So basically someone can steal it and get as far as they need before putting it in park 😹

      no. The Key has to be inside the car for the car to start.

      PumaBitez For the key to not be detected when in the car, it has to be driving. You cant fucking steal aonething from a moving car, moron...

      I think they mean steal the car without turning the car off, like someone steals your car at a stoplight or something but you still have the key in your pocket, but what good does that do if the robber can get as far as he wants without turning of the car

    Very good .. I have f150 with fob. Made me more aware where my fob is at all times..

  • @eelcogg
    @eelcogg Před 7 lety +2

    They should put a metal tab on the fob that you insert into a slot near the steering wheel. To prevent you driving off without the fob, the ignition should only be enabled when the tab is in the slot and your foot is on the brake. After starting, the tab locks in place so you can't take it out unless the ignition is turned off and the car is in park. Innovation!

      @zCATAHAz Před 7 lety

      In my car doors auto lock in about 200 meters drive ,even if you drive on parking lot 5 km\h. So most cars after 2000\2005 will auto lock. You cant open while driving from outside ,funny thing that even when passenger goes out and tries to open other door they wont open ,only if driver opens door car unlocks or you unlock with button...

    My father has an Audi A6. It tells you right away from the moment the key goes missing. Very helpful when switching drivers.
