Ahem......it seems around here the cars with the keyless- push button on dash start feature are being left running
Really kinda a problem when the owner pulls into the garage and goes to the bedroom over the garage for s nap

Nope. Having or not having makes no difference to me.
I do find the "full circle" that starting a car from a push button the dash interesting
I wonder if the start pedal will make a come back? Maybe a way to "retard" the spark as well .
So no dig intended.

A ride a couple months ago with a couple Harley buddies, both bikes keyless, first stop #1 Harley starts #2 has dead key fob battery. #1 already running removes his battery and installs in #2's fob all is good
This continued for 3 days, luckily no one stalled. Got even better in pouring rain at last two fuel stops
Moral to storey, carry a spare battery, mines taped to inside of pannier
Will be a late adopter as wasn't a fan of the EWS antennae when it failed on my RT either. Just how I roll.
I did finally get a smarter than me phone two years ago.
I would like Keyless on our next car, but with all the riders that were stranded because of the EWS thing, keyless on the bike makes me a little nervous...
3. Our 2012 VW Passat has a keyfob with so many features (not only remote locking/unlocking but also remote starting) and we never use any of them. What we actually like is that you can lock the car just by pressing a point on either the driver or passenger door handle, and unlock all doors by touching the inside of either handle. Of course the key has to be in range. What bothers me is what to do when the battery in that keyfob dies. I know there is a method, I know it is complicated, I know it is clearly explained in the owner's manual, and I know that owner's manual is now securely locked away inside the car.
Watch my phone? My only phone is a land line and there ain't much to watch. Since we don't use the lock/unlock buttons on the fob because the buttons on the door handles work so well, we probably wouldn't notice a dying battery. Your last suggestion is just splendid - replace the batteries in those two keys (now about 5 years old) before they fail. Thank you for some great advice that even I can understand! (Will let you all know if the cost is really a buck per battery.)You say "OK. Google. 2012 passat key fob battery replacement." Then watch your phone play one of the three videos, or read the other instructions and owner's forum tips on how to change the battery. Except you will probably notice the reduced range of the fob before it dies completely. Or you will spend a buck on a battery now and not worry about it for another five years.
It's all manageable.
