I wouldn't buy a car that had this sort of stupid 'convenience' tech-bloat in it, unless there was a way to turn it off & have it stay off. Same goes for a lot of other features that automakers tout as their (stupid) selling points.

Best passive protections against vehicle theft:
(1) Buy the most hated/ignored GREAT car in the U.S. - A Yaris hatchback.
(2) Buy a car with a manual transmission. How sad is that?
(3) Don't buy a car with theft-prone features (or any features that you don't like) that you can't disable once & have them stay off.
