Today I got home after running an errand. I got out of the car but did not plug it in because I'm going out again in an hour. I went inside and the car locked itself. Then I remembered something I'd left in the car. I went to the passenger side and opened the door, got what I'd left in the car, and closed the door. But I failed to close the door all the way. When I went back inside, the car did not lock.
Yes, it was my fault for not closing the door all the way. But in the Prius if I try to lock the door when something is preventing the door from locking, there is an audible signal. Here, nothing because you just walk away and hope it will lock.
Before I realized that the door was not closed, I went back out to the car without my phone. I was able to get in the car, but when I tried to put it in gear, it demanded the key card. So in this situation, someone could not drive the car away, but they could get inside and steal stuff.
