I just saw this posted on Facebook. It discusses "relay theft" of our vehicles, which is explained in the description for the accompanying video. There's a comment that follows the video that includes a document detailing the process for disabling passive entry. I had not seen anything about this here on the forum before and didn't find any threads discussing disabling this feature. This process is supposed to apply to all LR vehicles (equipped with passive entry option) from 2010 on.
I'm curious how many of you with passive entry will disable it based on this information. What are your reasons pro/con? I'm not sure. I use it frequently but I also often use the keyfob to unlock as I approach especially if I'm driving others (because I have two-stage unlock enabled currently). I live in an area with an overabundance of LRs, so you might call it a target-rich environment.
