Renault Kadjar Keyless Car Entry – Relay Attack

[UK Sentinel]

For anybody whom owns a Renault Kadjar and has the Keyless KeyFob (key card) option, the Kadjar via it Control Panel has the option to disable Keyless Entry function.

This is essence Allows the keycard to be used as an actual key fob to lock and unlock doors and boot via the push of a button on the keycard.

By disabling Key-less entry will then allow the doors to be locked and unlocked manually (keycard)  thus help prevent the wireless relay attack to gain entry in the Kadjar.

Alas this still does not stop the wireless key card from broadcasting a constant signal, but at least a forced entry to gain access to the vehicle will probable set off the alarm etc.

If a car thief is using the relay attack method, they will not be able to open the vehicle doors, this then may deter them from going any further
