Interesting piece about criminals now using radio jammers to block the RF signals from the key fob, so cars are not locking. Also 'experts' report that there are easily available electronics that can defeat modern car immobilisers. Mercedes were featured.
The scenario depicted in the film "Ghost Dog - Way of the Samurai" whereby Forest Whitaker steals Mercs by using an electronic gizmo has become fact.

Thieves will no longer need to steal your keys!
 
Good thing my RF doesn't work properly. I have to use the Infer-red and point the keyfob at the door handles!
