I was putting some stuff in my trunk from my best friend's party last night and by accident closed the trunk with the key in it (Kind of sux because I was going to take to beautiful girl home and this sh*t happened). The car was locked, so all the door could not open. Good thing the party was not too far from my house to pick up my spare key.

My question is wouldnt the smartkey recognize that its in the trunk and not lock it? The guy at the dealer told it shouldnt do it but he wasnt sure.

Nope - smart key won't recognize. Same thing happened to me when i was packing for a trip. i was shuffling so many things around and accidently locked both keys in the trunk!

had to get roadside assistance to come over to break into my car. learned my lesson the hard way.

why not use the online remote door unlock through mb 'owners online' function? is it required to have a teleaid subscription for the online remote unlock to work?

The smart key is not self aware, it has no idea where it is unless it is in the ignition.

Best solution is to have a spare metal key made and keep it in your wallet.

you should have called *ON-STAR* to unlock the doors

{wondering}

If I were OJSimpson and leading LAPD on a protracted chase, can they
simply call in my license plate, convert to VIN and have Onstar shut the
car down? Just how far does this 'convenience' feature extend in terms
of capabilities?

you should also be able 2 set a time to lock a certain time .when after u get out from your car with the key should lock buy its self , like in 10 min 15 min

Thanx for the info people!!

Lesson learned too.

I dont have a subscription with teleaid

That not a bad idea. Thanks for the suggestion.


What happened I parked and locked the car and went to the party. When it finished I was going to put some stuff in the trunk but I just opened the trunk (I didnt unlock the car). So I put in the stuff and I left my key.
Good thing I only live about 5mins from the party so my best friend gave me a ride home to pick up my spare.
-OT: The chick called me today and said it was cute that I left my keys in the trunk. She wants go out this weekend.

i think i'm going to...

It happened to guy I know, not in a MB, but in VW, but the strangest thing was, the key was in the ignition and the engine was ON
It happened when he closed the door, and he have to call road assistance too, but he waited 4h because he was in a mountain working on a civil project... ohhh and it was snowing

It will never work, even if the technology were enabled. The LAPD cannot make a decision fast enough to get the job done before the fuel tank is empty. These chases need to run for some time to get the 'copters overhead, so it can be broadcast if the driver needs a thumping.

im seriouse no B,S.........

rrpnow

i think the TL has it... or the hondas... actual same thing... lol... but im pretty sure its them

benzmodz

The Mercedes will only lock itself if the car has been unlocked by the radio key and no door has been opened.

i never heard of that option that the trunk wouldn't close if the keys were in there nor any other manufacturer that has that feature. if they do have it that's some pretty high tech ****

timsam

I heard of this option on the E with keyless go. The car knows where the key is and wont allow the car to lock. Doesnt help us...
