What Happens When Your Key Fob Is Inside the Car

You hop out of the car for a second, leaving your key fob in the cupholder, and when you try to lock the door, nothing happens. The car senses the fob is inside and keeps the doors unlocked, so you're stuck either grabbing it or leaving the car wide open. Some models also let you start and drive away without the fob, meaning your car stays vulnerable until the dead battery drains or you retrieve it manually.
