key fob must be inside to start the car?
A couple of things-
The car will not start unless the fob is inside the car. You cannot start the car with a key from the outside, you can only unlock the car with a fob on the outside.
The car does not automatically lock when you walk away. You must press the button on the outside door handle to lock the car.
It would not be possible for someone to steal the car with you outside the car.

Have any of you with comfort access tried starting your engines with the key fob just outside of the car and resulted in stalling? Thank you very much for your help!

For all of you with the comfort access system, is it true that the fob must be inside the car for the engine to start? So if the fob were just outside the door it wouldn't work? I'm only wondering because when I went to test drive a 2010 MCSa...I tried to start the car while the MA had the fob just outside the door and it stalled 3 times. I thought it was the ever-so-popular HPFP/warm start/stall issue. But then, when the MA got in the back seat for a second test drive, the engine fired up right away.
