A dead battery in your key fob can leave you stranded. Keep a spare battery or the mechanical key handy.

3. Vulnerable to Relay Attacks

Thieves can amplify signals from your key fob to unlock and start your car. Use signal-blocking pouches or store keys away from doors and windows.

4. Don’t Forget to Lock the Car

Many people assume the car locks automatically. Always confirm it’s locked to prevent theft.

5. Keyless Doesn’t Mean Ignition-Proof

Even with a push-button start, cars can be stolen if someone has the fob or can hack the system. Be mindful of security.

6. Keep Spare Keys Safe

Unlike traditional cars, replacing a lost key fob is often expensive. Keep spares in a secure location.

7. Beware of Rollaway Risk
