If your dumb enough to leave your FOB in the car, then you basically deserve to have your car stolen - happened to a friend of mine - I told him the truth - that he was a dumba$$. He agreed. Recovered the car and keeps the fob in his pocket.
Who in their right mind would intentionally leave the fob in the vehicle? I guess some still have no idea how these push button start and passive entry works. Fob in the car = the vehicle cannot be locked. But I guess he learned the hard way.
My guess is we have another pair of opinions not based in fact.
In fact, we leave our fob in the car all the time but gee, we lock the doors using the exterior keypad.
It is just another application of technology. Some trust the locks on their front doors and some of us trust the locks on our car doors. If 'they' want the car they will just drag it onto a flatbed. The alarm will be ringing if they break in or lift it, sadly I doubt anyone will notice.
