But what happens as your car ages and over time strong encyption becomes weak encryption? I can see a day where a thief simply walks past older cars in a mall parking lot to have doors pop open or engines start. Or perhaps I sit down in the drivers seat to see a message on the dash "Important security update available! Download now?" I’ll ponder my watch knowing I’m already late but a security update means a vunerability in my security system has been found and the thieves know it. BUT!

I know the numbers are spectacularly large on guessing a decent-length key, but if there are say 50 cars within range which respond to the same format of RF or whatever wireless system is used, each key attempted would have a chance on all of them simultaneously, yeah? So still 20mins between attacks, but it increases your odds somewhat, surely. Further, what if an attacker wandered into a car-park somewhere likely to have expensive vehicles parked in it regularly (preferably the same vehicles), and installed a recording device that logged signals from nearby vehicles/keys? Simply rebroadcast...
