Keyless Entry

This lets you lock and unlock your doors and trunk, as well as unlock the trunk and turn on the ignition with a push button. This remarkable convenience makes driving the Lexus more fun than the typical vehicle. The key fob might need to be replaced with a new battery at some point to work effectively.

The good news is that you can extend the life of your key fob's battery by keeping it at least three feet away from electrical appliances that produce magnetic fields, including televisions, cell phones, battery chargers, induction cookers and table lamps.

Immobilizer System

When you put your key in the ignition, it sends an ID code to a receiver within the car. The computer will allow the engine to start when the ID code is identical to an earlier one stored in the car. However, if the ID code doesn't match, it triggers an immobilizer, which stops the engine from running.

This technology works even if your keys get stolen, but it's not foolproof. It is possible to "hack" an anti-theft system using radio waves. A criminal could use an aerial antenna to detect the signal and spoof it to tell the car that the key is present.

Experts are putting together more secure systems to thwart this. Some provide WiFi connectivity, undetectable installation and pin code entry via buttons on the dashboard.
