Holy cow! Thats terrible! I didn't post this as a guide of "how to", rather as a reminder of what to avoid, especially if there is absolutely no reason for a "funny" sound when you start moving after restarting your parked car. We have all read stories of this happening, but the video shows you how easily it can be done. This was a demonstration video, the car was not actually stolen. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking what a great prank it would be. I think I should start a public service and do this to 25 of my closest friends, and stop 100 feet away. :lol: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people just ain't got no sense of humor! ============================================================================= Divemaster... I was kinda wondering where you were going with this and what was the reason for the post. I was about to say "you bad, bad boy" ... till I realized it was "educational" ... whew, glad for that! Always good to try to stay one step ahead of the crooks! Thank you btw! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrparrot Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 Locked your keys in your car? Got a remote, but it's in the car, with your keys? Got a spare remote at home? Got a cell phone with you? Call home. Have someone take your remote, hold it up to the phone and push the button while you hold your phone next to your car. All done. Doors are now unlocked... We tested this myth at McClellan Buick-Pontiac-GMC back in 2006. It worked on various vehicles... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrparrot Posted March 18, 2012 Report Share Posted March 18, 2012 No way. Really? Yes, really. Now, keep in mind that we did it with vehicles from the early to mid 2000's. A 2005 Chevrolet Colorado (my truck), a 2005 Chevrolet Silverado (the boss's truck), a 2004 Chevrolet Malibu (the wife's car (risky, I know)), and various other employee cars and trucks. Technology changes. Test this with your vehicles at your own risk... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smee2 Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Many years ago, so I don't know if it is still in effect, in Canada, so I don't know if it applies to the US, there was a law on the books of most Canadian cities and towns that would have not only charged the thief, but the car owner. Why? Because she left the door open, keys in the ignition., maybe even turned on. And why is that a crime? It is called "invitation to theft. What that means is that if you leave your car in such a condition, as with the doors unlocked, the keys in the car whether they are in the ignition or not, you are setting the car up to be stolen. Invitation to theft. I suspect it sort of falls into that category a lot of people use to suggest a woman wearing very revealing clothing is actually looking to be raped. There are some sick people in the world. Anyway, when my brother was first trained as a police officer, for the Ontario Provincial Police, the Ontario version of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, one of his "jobs" was to find cars that had been left open, unlocked, ready to be taken with keys in the ignition or even above the visor. So, although the driver didn't really put a sign on the car saying, "Hey I am unlocked and the keys are here so steal me!" the car owner, or driver, was held responsible. Oh the thief was charged too, but it sort of took the sting out of it when the car owner was also charged with a misdemeanor. You might want to keep that in mind when you are travelling to Canada ... a lot of Canadian charges are used to keep airport car rentals from growing wings and just taking off. smee2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusher Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Remote keyless entry systems and cell phones transmit their signals at different frequencies, and a car lock will not receive the required frequency to unlock a car door even if a person on the other end of the cell phone has the proper remote keyless entry transmitter. Dont need a link, I'm a locksmith....It doesn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
