Nissan warns U.S. cell phones can disable car keys

May 25, 2007 (Reuters) -- Nissan North America has a warning for customers:
Placing your electronic key too close to your cell phone could leave you
stranded.


The automaker is asking customers driving new models of two of its flagship
sedans to keep their car keys and cell phones at least an inch apart to
avoid disabling the "intelligent keys."


Cell phones kept near Nissan's I-Keys -- wireless devices designed to allow
drivers to enter and start their cars at the push of a button -- can erase
the electronic code on the keys
