Thieves unlock cars with remote control

Recommended Posts

In this video it seems like they can just open the doors, not start the car.

Is it Bluetooth, OBDII, MP3, wireless or remote entry scanner - any ideas?

I know BMW's had a big problem with this and the subject has been discussed for years.

Considering RFID and wireless now, not surprised at all. Once someone determines how to crack the key fobs, then you will start seeing more car thefts of cars with PBS. Just a matter of time, good reason not to leave anything you wish to keep in the car.

This is even more concerning, actually taking control of a car. I came across this last week. I haven't completely vetted this but it seem plausible.

yes very plausible, but these guys had assess to the car and lots of time, not like they just drove up with a laptop and took control of the car by WiFi. Pretty cool tech demo, but it seems like a pretty low threat
