Keyless-go theft

Many car owners no longer want to do without their Keyless-go remote key. No wonder, because with such a key, opening and locking your own car becomes child's play. Especially in poor visibility conditions or when you want to open your car with both hands full, the Keyless-go technology has often proven to be a daily lifesaver. After all, a simple press of the head is enough, instead of first finding the classic key on the heavy keyring and then awkwardly turning it in the lock for a long time. In terms of convenience, the Keyless-go system scores undisputedly in every respect. But what about the security of such a remote key? Does it prevent potential theft as reliably as a "normal" one? We at Braun Antriebe will take a closer look at this question below and show you alternatives at the end with which you can be sure to keep your valuable car safe from criminals.

Does Keyless-go protect against theft?

This question can be answered – and many advocates of the remote key will surely not like to hear this – with a clear "No". The reason lies in the fragile technology that characterizes the Keyless-go system. For tech-savvy criminals, it is easy to simply intercept the key's radio signal and transmit it to another sender, which can then be used to open the respective car. The frightening thing is: this method is even easier for many criminals who want to commit car theft than simply stealing the "normal" car key directly from you. Does this mean you should completely give up the convenience of your Keyless-go key? Here, too, we can once again answer with a clear "No." After all, there is an efficient method with which you can always keep your car safe from theft: the bollards from Braun Antriebe!
