It runs in the family

I was supposed to take my kids out over an hour ago so we could spend some Q time together, and I sit here waiting for my ex to get my keys out of the car. I left my cell phone in the car last night and my son went to go get it, but forgot to take my keys out. I just did the very same thing from work like 2+ weeks ago. I paid $65 for a locksmith to come out and jimmie my car. It took him less than one minute. UGH! I refuse to pay that again...

Hey! I can do ya one better then that! We had just gotten a brand new Volkswagen and my husband locked the keys in the car and the extra one wouldn't work.
So, we pay a locksmith to come open it.
Ok, so all is fine. We leave, drive a block down, go over this railroad trestle that was like a hill.....and plow into the back of a tourist who had just plain stopped (it was a busy 3 lane road) to read a map. Not one of our better days!

hey mitzi, i thought all the newer VWs only locked by either using the remote or turning the key in the lock on teh door. AFAIK, there isnt a passive mode on the alarm that make it arm itself. i also drive a VW, i have a passive mode on my aftermarket alarm and have locked myself out a couple of times too i keep a spare key in my wallet just for that reason.

This was a 1971 VW, I think. I'd love to have a newer one!

Hello Katey

Don't feel bad Katey. At least is was not a radio car. At a public gas station. And you without a spare key.

Just don't even ask me!
