Same thing with the car pad entry. Those typically work for 4-5 years.

Of course for those who lease their cars for two years, this is all moot.

Take care.

I get your point that as they put more systems on a vehicle, it is less reliable.  It also has more points of failure.  Regardless, cars seem more reliable.  Change a tire lately?

Remember the complaints when they put doors on horseless carriages and the doors had complex lock mechanisms?  My Jeep 1976 Levi CJ-7 had no doors and the ignition could have the key removed in the off position (but not locked).  So the two wings sticking off the ignition could be turned to the on position and the Jeep driven without a key.
