Mekanik Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 We've got a customer that just bought a 2011 Taurus. They started the vehicle this morning and the key FOB wasn't in the vehicle, but close enough to start the engine. The customer then drove to downtown Chicago (aprox a two hour drive) and stopped at a gas station. THE CAR WON'T RE-START! The key FOB was left at home and they have no way of starting the vehicle.

Jim Warman Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 What is even funnier..... I had one a couple of weeks back. Customer is inside the store and I'm out front with the car - and the message centre is proclaiming "No key detected". Additionally, when the start button is pushed to turn the car off, the message centre will display "Restart now or key is needed". The instrument cluster seems to be a lot like the owners manual - unread. Every time they make something more idiot-proof - God makes a better idiot.
