This whole thing with keys and fobs is only going to get worse. The "keyless" ones with just a fob are going to be a disaster in the making. Fobs will get OLD and expensive to replace when they start to fail. Dealer support will start to taper off long before the cars go to the scrapyard. I personally vow to never own a car without a key. I simply do not trust the fobs. Batteries in the fobs go dead at unexpected times and leave you stranded - potentially hundreds of miles from home and low on funds. They also wear out, get contaminated with pocket lint or whatever. Mechanical failure of the micro switches in them will fail after so many uses. Now, if you are the person that is going to update every couple of years, this will not affect you directly. However, ultimately it WILL bring down the value of these cars as used cars. Even the keys with the chips in them are potential problems. Time will tell.
