I haven't really had a problem with mine so to speak... The other week it did say there was no key in the car it took me putting the key right next to the steering wheel to get it to work, so swapped to my spare key incase it was the battery in the key and it was ok for a few days then the same thing. Hasn't happened for a while now though so hoping just a blip.
I do have one scare about the push button start. Obviously I have no key ignition, also if I start the car and someone drives off without the key the engine (should) turn off for security reasons. What my scare is (although i'm sure there's safety features installed) what would happen if i'm travelling 70 down the motorway and the battery dies in the key or the sensor fails and it thinks there's no key... Would the engine cut out resulting in a nasty outcome or is there a safety feature like if it's over a certain speed the car will keep running until stopped?
I'm probably being paranoid but after Mum's crash the other week and rolling her car it's been playing on my mind!
