Do you use pin to drive?

[RC2785]

Curious to see how many people use pin to drive.

I intend to (once the car gets here). My car will be a driveway car (vs garage - as there is no parking there), so there is too much chance of my phone being in range of the car, and having it unlocked.

surprise to see the result, i use it because i always forgot my cellphone when exiting the car and sometimes i didn't even realize

I voted "no". I might enable it from time-to-time. Like parking in a sketchy area and having one more defense against the car getting away from me.

Same reason I do. Happens too frequently with a black phone in the black charging station.

I only use it because it's there. It's an extra layer of security so why not? My wife hates it

the model 3 has better fob encryption as I understand it so I don't use it but I have it enabled on a 2016 Model S - speaking of which supposedly higher encryption security fobs were coming for the model S - I haven't heard anything recently about them?

The pin to drive feature makes the summon feature intermittent on my model X.

With the pin to drive on, sometimes when you push and hold for 5 seconds, the car just blink then does nothing. You have to wake up the car, then wait at least 30 seconds before you do the push & hold. Turn off the pin to drive solved the issue.

My main deterrent to using the pin to drive is I feel like it would be a pain if you ever need someone else to drive your car, like a valet, car cleaning etc. You either have to remember go in and turn it off each time, or give them the pin.

I don't use PIN to drive, but this is exactly what valet mode is for. I haven't tried it out...does it still ask for PIN in valet mode?

Tried it a few time. Pain! I don't use anymore.

I mainly use it so my 7 year old doesn't get up at 3 in the morning and decide to drive into the living room. He's very irritated that I won't tell him the code.

It's one of the first features I enabled. I like knowing there is an extra hurdle if someone happens to break in.

 

[Bill Foster]

No. Let em steal it. I’ll get another

He can't just watch you type it in from the back seat when you go somewhere together?

Exactly.. my daughters seat is in the middle in the back and I would bet she could recall the pin if she tried.. but anyways it’s not a huge inconvenience for me to leave it on for the extra layer of safety so I leave it on..

 

[Mrcarcrazy]

Tried it twice. I really like the idea, makes me feel like I’m Frank Martin (Jason Statham) in The Transporter movies. But it was annoying.

 

[Tron 3]

Every. Time. It's two-step verification, added security. I'll endure the very minor inconvenience for the piece of mind.

Used to a year or so ago, not anymore. Just got tired of the extra step.
