Not sure how to word the title better. I'm sure many people have come across a car that looks exactly like theirs and found out you can't open the door because its not the right key. Post up your interesting stories.
I parked my car at the shopping center parking lot. When I came back there was another car parked just a few spaces away that looked exactly the same as mine. I always use the remote to unlock, I pressed the unlock a few times and was wondering why it was not responding. Then I put the key in the door lock and it does not turn. I looked carefully in the interior and realized it was not my car. So I press the panic switch on the remote and found that my car was just a few spaces away.
I would be surprised if putting in a wrong key in another car actually opened the door. Not sure if its true story. Back when I was in high school my history teacher told us a story that someone unknowingly drove away the wrong car. Before car keys did not have computer chips so that each car manufacturer has a certain amount of locksets.
