The hazard

Certain vehicles equipped with the "Keyless Go" option, fail to comply with the requirements of CMVSS 114 - Theft Protection and Rollaway. If the remote keyless entry transmitter is removed from the vehicle prior to pressing the stop/start button, the instrument cluster information center displays a "fobik not present" message, and if the stop/start button is pressed & held and the engine is turned off, the electronic key code is removed from the vehicle. Since this can occur in a transmission or gear selector position other than PARK, and the transmission does not become locked in PARK as a result of key removal, it is determined a noncompliance to the Standard. Correction: Dealers will reprogram the wireless ignition node module.
