My '07 Pete has remote keyless entry, so a "key" is a non-issue. And the ignition key has a computer chip in it so if it is not the correct key it will not start...passive theft resistance thay call it....over 100 million combinations, so I don't think I have to worry too much! :lol: :lol:

Those keyless entry locks can be hacked. Some are easier than others...but still the easiest way is to simply snap the glass with a "glass breaker tool."

"By listening in on the wireless “conversation” between a car and its key, the researchers found they could crack the code that keeps the communication secret. Then they were able to emulate the electronic key and trick the car into unlocking itself.

Nearly all cars with remote keyless entry use an encryption system called KeeLoq. It was developed during the 1980s and purchased by Microchip Technology Inc. in the 1990s. Like all encryption systems, KeeLoq scrambles messages so they can't be read by anyone who intercepts them. Only someone -- or something -- with the appropriate deciphering key can unscramble the message."

In a breaking news flash, several Barr Nunn drivers have reported burglaries today. Police have no idea where to begin, but some are suggesting it may be an inside job. :lol:
