Ok, I have had a couple of od things happen, such as all of my presets disapearing until I turn the car off and back on and various others, but the other day I came home from vacation, I unlocked the doors remotely, my wife opened the passenger side door, I opened the trunk and we started putting our luggage in the car. At this point I had not opened the drivers side door, the keys were in my pocket and no one entered the car. My wife then makes a comment that I am showing off. I asked her what she was talking about, and she said that by me turning the radio on in the car without getting in was showing off. I explained to her that it was not my radio, that it was impossible since the keyes were in my car. It had to be someone else. Well it turns out it WAS my car. How could this happen? Anyone else experience this one?

yes i have had this happen once. I think it happens if you turn the stereo off before switching off, it must confuse the computer. I leave mine on all the time now haven't had a re-occurence

jonboy, I never turn mine off either. I turned my car off while the stereo was on.
