Smart Keys

Smart keys aren't only a convenient feature. They also make it more difficult for thieves to steal your vehicle. Smart keys do not broadcast the same frequency as traditional key fobs. Instead they send out various encrypted messages every time they open a door or remotely unlock the trunk. A computer in your car is able to detect these changing frequencies and only allows it to start if the appropriate key is in line with the new signal.

BMW smart keys, for example, have a small LCD touchscreen that performs the same functions as a standard key fob, including locking or unlocking and keyless entry. But they also allow users to save their own driver settings, stop windows or sunroofs, as well as tell your car to park itself. Smart keys are distinguished by these features.

Despite this added layer of security, there are still ways that smart keys could be hacked. If someone else can detect low-frequency transmissions between your smart key, and your car when you are away, like at a restaurant or a petrol station, they could gain access to your car (or at the very least, attempt to).

The good news is that most smart keys have a battery backup that kicks in if your primary battery fails. Many smart key batteries can be easily replaced and don't usually require special tools.
