What problems have you experienced with your keyless entry remote?

It's not innocuous when it's right outside my bedroom, focused by the
alley. Cities can be quiet, too. People should not have to put up with
abuse because they live in a city. Let's say that your neighbor comes
home at 3:00 AM when you're sleeping and lets out a war-whoop locking
the car door. People do that. Or, since you posted about motorcycles,
how about the guy who blasts past your house at 3:00 AM with their
Harley. It's all unwanted noise. In that case, since you are bothered by
loud bikes, that one's your problem, too.

Uh, Brian, please read my material more carefully before you put me
down. I posted about the bad human engineering of the confirmation
circuitry, which causes people to almost always press the button twice;
and whoop it up because they can't see the confirmation from the first
silent press.

Read the following paragraphs. Again. You quoted them, you know.

The Hyundai that I rented worked this way.

It is too easy to hit by accident.

It's a thoughtless design that annoys other people. Annoying other
people isn't cool, even if your attitude is "What's wrong with you: get
a life." That's insulting, Bryan. It happens that many people are
disturbed by unneccessary noise pollution. Just like you are with
motorcycles. Hey, Bryan: what's wrong with you? I love the sound of
loud-as-hell motorcycles. I'm going to part outside your house and revv
my motorcycle: Vroom, Vroom, Bryan! Deal with it. Get a life!

"...would like to here..."

I only use the audible alert to tell me the doors locked. I like it.
I don't really care at all if you don't.

 

You're making assumptions and touting them as facts. You have no idea
how often people press their remote buttons twice. Judging by your other
responses, once it too much. Intolerance will get you nowhere.

Current Hyundais do not.

Really? I think I've hit it exactly once in the 15 months I've had the
car and that was in my garage. That's hardly a problem.

No, it annoys you. Do you see anyone else here complaining?

If it gets to the point that I can't stand it, I'll do something about
it, even if it means moving. I've already done something about idiot
kids that drive by with their bass booming. The town I live in has noise
abatement ordinances and the police will enforce them when complaints
are filed. That's the way you deal with such things, not by complaining
about them in a forum.

And that's significant?

 

My 2004 Sonata LX doesn't ever chirp even if I push the lock button twice.

 

Maybe it's broken? Regardless, you should sell it to Richard! ;-)
