Cellphones Disable Nissan Car Keys
If you drive either a 2007 Nissan Altima sedan or a Nissan Infiniti G35 sedan you will want to keep your car keys well away from your cellphone. Reports from Nissan conclude if the keys and cellphone are touching when any incoming or outgoing call is initiated the data on the car keys can be erased. No keys, no entry or ignition! Those of you who don't drive these makes or models would do well to consider the greater significance of two electronic devices colliding. Always be aware of the potential for unexpected results when dealing with the ever present digital geegaws and thingamajigs. NOTE: Contrary to the Heading this is NOT an actual product recall . . . for now.
