I never had anybody tell me this until my wife learned this today from someone at work. I couldn't believe it until I tried it. I had my wife go far out of range, and then I called her by cell phone. With the key in her hand, and me by my car door holding the cell phone, she pressed unlock on the key remote and unlocked my door. This is great if you lose your key or leave it in the car, and someone else in your family has an extra key to your car, and you can call them to unlock your door.

No, and you don't know it either, you just think you do. Your car unlocks with a radio signal, which is not something you can relay via cell phone.

actually..it has been proven and it is possible to a certain extent.
reason: the key remote uses infrared and radio waves..so it bounces off the surroundings thats why it is able to unlock the car in a short distance. But in a room where everything is sealed, the infrared lines and radio waves are prevented from reaching the car

Wait a minute! Wait a minute! You mean to tell me that they actually make cars now? Just kidding. I'd heard that before but I've never tried it. It does sound like it'd be handy.
