Keep your Mazda long enough and one day it will lock the FOB inside. The amount of times we all have to fiddle about trying to figure out where our FOB is as we leave the car is crazy.

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.

Have an 8-year-old vehicle with a keyless entry system and a touch to start feature that works flawlessly to this day. Whenever I bring it to the dealer for preventive maintenance, they tell me how much "life" is left on the controller's battery and ask me if I want them replace. At 20% left I almost always tell them to replace it, which is like once every 1.5 years.

That said, human beings are creatures of habit. We hate new things. We hate change, especially when they tend to wipe out a tradition that's been around so long. I still like drip versus brewing coffee via those now-famous pods. But when I am having wall to wall meetings, pods are so handy.
