    http://www.foxnews.com/us/2018/02/1...ls-owner-for-help-starting-it-police-say.html

    A Minnesota man has been arrested after allegedly stealing a car from a Walmart parking lot, then calling the owner less than two hours later for help starting the vehicle.



    Edward Leroy Wilson, 37, is suspected of sneaking into the car after its owner turned it on remotely from within the Sartell, Minn., store, the St. Cloud Times reported.

    The woman who owns the vehicle apparently wanted to warm it up Monday night in frigid evening temperatures, but by the time she went to the parking lot, the car was gone.

    Police say Wilson had driven the vehicle more than an hour away, but ran into trouble restarting the car after he had parked it.

    About 10:30 p.m. -- less than two hours after surveillance images showed the car leaving the lot -- the owner received a call from a woman who told her that a man was asking questions about the vehicle, the St. Cloud Times reported.

    Wilson, who gave a fake name, then spoke to the owner directly, and asked if she could find someone to start the car for him, police said.


    Officers responding to a suspicious person call identified Wilson and the stolen vehicle during Wilson's conversation with the owner, according to local reports, and took Wilson into custody.

    He reportedly admitted to the crime and told officers "he knew it was not a good idea to get the vehicle," according to a criminal complaint filed against him.

    I was looking into remote starters for my gf's Crosstrek. Subaru designs theirs to turn the engine off once the door is opened.

    People were bitching because they would have to then turn the car back on to drive and would rather have their car unlocked with their engine on instead.

    Yes, if you don't have the ignition on.

    If I insert the ignition key and turn it to the run position I can just drive off. But if I depress the brake pedal before then it will turn off, apologies for not mentioning that.

    both of mine are set up this way.........but i have managed to get it out of gear before it shuts off. They would have to tow it at that point but,not 100% theft proof.

    For the two I've had, the doors remain locked while the car is running. I can unlock the door with the keys or key fob. Without the key, once you not the brake pedal, the car shuts off.
