An error message of "key missing, check for key'' has been popping up lately. What's strange is that everything seems normal, but then it randomly shows up, sometimes even just while parked for a moment. It’s weird right, because the car stays on without any issues, but seeing the alert come up so often is frustrating. Has anyone else dealt with this, or found a way to stop it from appearing?
 
I can relate to that! It seems like the system is working as intended, likely detecting that the key is out of range. If your wife had another key or if it was nearby, that might explain the message appearing intermittently. To minimize the chances of it popping up, a good practice would be to leave the key inside the car when you step out, especially if you are not getting out as well. This should help prevent any confusion with the key detection system.
 
Ugh, I had this super annoying thing happen the other day. I ran into the store real quick to grab some coffee, left the car running bcoz my daughter was inside, no biggie, right? But then I get back, and this dumb message pops up. Like, seriously? The key’s just sitting there on the console, not even in my pocket or anything. And the spare? Oh, that ones chilling at home, hanging on a hook where it always is. So what’s up with that? So weird!
