Keyfob laying on top my gym bag in passenger seat. Went around a corner, heard it fly off and hit the floor (I thought)

Looked for several minutes before I found it.

How lucky was I ( check pic)?

Another 3/4" and I wudda been screwed, having NO idea where it was as it would have been hidden under the console.

Hard to believe it can happen with a key fob the size of Montana, but the above link will prevent it from happening again.

Eh, worst case scenario is you'd have to take the center console apart. It's actually incredibly easy.

These fobs are so large they exert their own gravitational pull! 😫
When I test drove my Jeep I assumed the key fob floated as there was no other logical explanation for its size.

I keep my key fob in my pants pocket.

When I drive off road I get in an out often. Then, I keep the key fob in the key fob holder between the 2 cup holders.

"In case of a water landing, your key fob can be used as a flotation device. Do not open they key until outside the (air)craft"
