YES


once again, AS LONG AS A FOB IS INSIDE THE CAR (except trunk area) ANYONE CAN WALK UP TO YOUR CAR, PULL ON THE DOOR AND IT WILL OPEN!!!!!!!!!!!, 10 miles 10,000 miles away from the home.

I have a better idea, start the car, leave both remotes in the house.......go drive 10 miles away from home, shut the car off and see.

Well, you must have a 'special' C6, because it didn't work with mine. Actually, in all fairness, when my episode occurred, the fob was on the passenger seat and it slid off into the side next to the passenger door; and no, it definitely did not open.

But that really isn't the point of this thread. Fact is, as far as the orginal cell phone idea, I tried it tonight and it seemed to work for me. I have nothing personal to gain from this, and I'm not selling anything. If you have nothing further to add to the thread, why not move on?

It is a dupe. Been posted here several times. It was wrong every time it was posted here and it's still wrong.

I don't lock my keys in my car because they stay in my pocket where they belong.
'Course, locking the key in the car means nothing because the fob never leaves my personage.

I know you have nothing to gain by this thread, it's OK, this is C6 GEN

This urban legend has been going around for quite some time. It's been posted here on the forum before. You're are correct about one thing...'I won't believe it.' Then as now, it's a myth.

That's pretty funny too. I leave my keys on the center console all the time when I'm working on the car. The doors open every time. I've had three C6's, and they all have.
