Unlock Your Car via Cell Phone ???

[Ed Csoltko]

I just got this email and was wondering if anyone knows it to be true?

If you have keyless entry on your car and you lock you keys in the car...and IF someone is at home where the "other set of keys" is....

If you lock your keys in the car. For those of you who have a car that can be unlocked by that remote button on your key ring: If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are home, and you don't have "OnStar," here's your answer to the problem!

If some one has access to the spare remote at your home, call them on your cell phone (or borrow one from someone if the cell phone is locked in the car too!)

Hold your (or anyone's) cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the other person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the phone on their end.

Your car will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other "remote" for your car, you can unlock
the doors (or the trunk, or have the "horn" signal go off, or whatever!)


(Editor's Note * It works fine! We tried it out and it unlocked our car over a cell phone.)
