Description of the problem | On two occasions, the first time was within a couple days of owning the vehicie, i have had the jeep start remotely in my garage due to the remote key transponder in my pocket and the attached keys on the key ring depress the remote start button, which requires two presses to activate. I have also had the panic button feature activate twice from the buttons being depressed in my pocket. Seems to be a very dangerous and faulty key fob design. Have read online others having same issue and decided to file a report. |
