Car manufacturers are always tweaking their remote start systems in order to make it easier for their customers to get in and out of their cars. But what if one of those challengers came along – a car that could be unlocked without needing the key?
As we all know, car theft is on the rise, and with thieves looking for any opportunity to make a quick buck, disabling remote start could be a big mistake. So before you take the plunge and unlock that challenger, be sure to consult with your car manufacturer first – they might have some other ideas about how to make your car more secure.
What is Remote Start?
Remote start is a feature on some cars that allows the car to be started remotely using a keyless entry system. This can be convenient if you are not near the car, or if you have to leave the car for an extended period of time.
The process of remote start usually requires that the car’s battery be discharged first. This is done by disabling the car’s remote start feature and then removing the battery. Once the battery has been removed, you must reconnect the cables and disable the car’s remote start feature again.
This process is designed to protect against accidental starts.
The Benefits of Remote Start
Remote start has many benefits, but one of the most important is that it can disable a car’s keyless entry system. This means that if your car is stolen, the thief won’t be able to start it using the key fob.
This is an especially valuable feature if you have young children who might not be able to operate a car’s keyless entry system. If your car is stolen and the keyless entry system is disabled, the thief won’t be able to get into the car without breaking in or stealing the car’s keys.
How to Unlock a Challenger
If you own a Challenger and have the key to the car, you can unlock it by starting the car and pressing the unlock button on the key fob. The car will then ask for your driver’s license number. After providing your information, the car will unlock.
Conclusion
In this article, we will explore the potential consequences of unlocking a challenger car in your neighborhood. As you may know, all cars are equipped with remote start capabilities to allow you to quickly and easily get your car started in cold weather or if you have trouble getting out of your car. Unlocking a challenger car may disable that remote start capability, potentially leaving you stranded if you need to use it in an emergency. Before doing anything, be sure to consult with your insurance company to see if disabling the remote start on a challenger is something that would void your policy.
