Transponder Keys

The type of key that you have is comprised of a microchip that sends an alert to the car when it's near the ignition. The car's computer analyzes the code and determines that it's the right key for starting the engine. The digital signature of the key blocks anyone from copying the transponder. This makes it a great deterrent against theft. It's not foolproof, however, as criminals have discovered ways to fake it. Secure your key with an alarm system.
