Besides offering convenience, keyless entry remotes incorporate a number of safety features as well.

Safety features of keyless car remotes

Many remotes contain a panic button which activates the horn and flashing of the headlights. This can be used in an emergency and is particularly useful for women or elderly drivers. Since a keyless system allows the opening of a car from a distance this is beneficial for elderly drivers or those with disabilities. Keyless remotes alert you when you attempt to leave the car with the key fob inside, so this is also a way to ensure that forgetful people do not get locked out of their cars and it reminds them to lock their cars before they leave, thus eliminating the possibility of car theft.

Car alarm features

Car alarm systems are integrated into keyless entry remotes. Thus on models that offer them, such as with Nissan keyless entry remotes, one can arm or disarm their car from a distance, and be alerted when someone tampers with the car. If your car does not come with a keyless system, there are several companies, such as Remotes2003 that offer such remotes, compatible with your particular car model.
