My car is a 2012 Hyundai and all I have is a simple key to unlock the driver side door and trunk. It's low tech but I like it.

So how do I find my car? I just make it a point to remember the location in relation to one of the stores in the strip mall. It's so easy once you get used to doing it.

Mike, this is a serious question. I'm not trying to be a smartass.
How can you see the lights flashing in a multi tier garage; what am I missing?

Because the horn blasts with lights when you press the Panic button.

Thanks. I didn't know that. I've never pressed the panic button.

I suggested doing this to a woman in a parking lot once who was having difficulty finding her car....I know she thought I was nuts but she did it and voila! it worked. she was very surprised.
