Looks like we'll have to double-check that our cars are actually locked, seems like a few n'er-do-wells are jamming remote locking signals with an eye to breaking in!

I've had the odd occasion where my remote wouldn't lock the car so I've had to resort to the key, but I'm not sure what owners of actually key-less cars could do...
