[QUOTE="Scott Holcomb, post: 1387503, member: 34099"] I saw an article tonight which showed a video of a car thief stealing a Tesla from someone’s driveway. They used two people, one walked up close to the front door holding a wire up high. The second went to the car and unlocked and started it. Apparently they are using the guy in the middle to pass the signal from the car to the keyfob inside. The keyfob responds and they pass the info to a similar keyfob near the car. They get in and hit the start button and it does it again. The vehicle can then be driven off. It will not be able to be started again without the keyfob but it’s already gone. They are warning people from placing their keys near the front door or driveway where the receiver can boost the signal. Has anyone looked into a faraday cage type bag to store their keys in when not in use? [/QUOTE]
