Key Fob Memory ?
Is there anyway to keep the car's key memory features from getting confused when both keys are in the car? I am driver 1, and my wife is driver 2. I open the door for her and she gets in, I then walk around to the drivers side and get in. When I go to start it up, the car reads her key sitting in her purse on the floor.
I've have other cars that have electronic keys, and the cars have never gotten confused (Benz SL550, INFINITI M37S, and Honda Accord). When I would get in on the drivers side, the cars would read my key and adjust everything accordingly.
Thanks

One of many "improvements" that come out with the C7.

The first fob recognized by the car wins. I had the same problem.
If your wife only drives occasionally set both memories to your settings. Or - turn off memory recall and use the door buttons.
