Thieves boosting signal from key fobs inside homes...
This is really strange and shallow thinking of some manufacturers.
I have a 2009 car. It'd NOT start if I don't have my key fob inside the car.

I'm sure the car in these break-ins are like that too. The remote fob
is
inside the car, but they have an RF relay outside the car which proxies the keycode to the one inside the car.
