Sooo.... I got carjacked....

Not to hi-jack this thread (see what I did there...?), Some companies here in NYC are telling their employees to "dress down" so as not to become attractive targets to ne'er-do-wells.
Brave New World...
I do like the idea of a "panic button" which could shut the car off after a few blocks.

So if the bad guys are driving off and you have the fob in your pocket.....double press the lock button and wait for the fun to happen?

Well there you go. So sorry, glad/hope your ok! Gotta be an empty feeling watching it drive away. I used to fly into Ontario and hop over the mountains for World Dairy Expo in Tulare CA every October. Had a gun stuck in my face at a gas station outside the Airport one year. Didn't like it one bit.

The "double lock" feature is disabled on North American market models because it disables the inside door handles and prevents a child or anyone else from opening the door and getting out. That's a safety hazard according to the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

Sorry to hear about your misfortune pk4144...I'm with the other posts, you'll be lucky to get them to look at a report in the LA area.

If I recall, I remember seeing this in another thread and I believe he put it on the ASL button because he doesn't really use it, and doesn't want anyone pressing it! Although I can see someone pressing it 'just to see'! I want one too!

BTW, I think it was you who mentioned they use an old Ipod nano to listen to music. Dug out my old 6th Gen Nano, loaded up some new tunes and works perfect!
