I had my wife drive me 30 minutes away to drop my car and my keys off at the night drop at the mazda dealer...

Stupid Idiot me just realizes at 2am that I didn't include the alarm remote to disarm the car. So they are gonna open my fucking car at 7:30am and not only not be able to diagnose my car, but they won't be able to turn the alarm off...

Looks like I have to take a drive :(

It's not that hard, theres a button under the dash that can turn it off with the key in the ignition(for the most part, its slighty different from model to model, like say trucks have a different way, but its ultimately do-able). Mazda and ford share parts and people used to do that at the ford dealership I worked at. Annoying as hell at 6:30am as a porter to have the alarm suddenly go off, and I'll hate you but it's not a hard fix.

<- Also, The Garage forum is that a way

just drop the remote into the overnight deposit box then, if they're not retarded, they'll know or figure out it's your car's.

no big deal, they'll just cut some wiring to stop the alarm

Try driving 4 hrs and then realizing you dont have your keys, having to turn back around and 8 hrs later your in the same place plus a set of keys. Lets just say I called myself a lot more than a "f'ing idiot"

30 mins drive is not that bad, me and my retarded friend were driving to a concert in Orlando 4 hrs. drive, just to find out the concert was over like 5 mins before we arrived, turned out that douche didn't really bother checking the schedule, he said "well I figured it's gonna start at 10..."

my roommate did something similar.

I have to drive him 30 miles to a dealer to pick up his car at late night. Upon arrival, my roomate said the f word and mumble, "I forgot the keys andy."

How about this. Drive car 80 miles way out in the country to drop off for service and pick up other car which is already at the shop. Pick up car A, drop off car B putting keys in slot. Start driving away and within five miles Car A throws check engine light and starts running like crap. Want to go back and get Car B, but cannot because I don't have the spare key with me.

So drive all 80 miles back home to get spare keys for Car B all the while hoping Car A does not explode, then drive 80 miles back to pick up Car B.

Total Trip: 320 miles!!!!!!!!!!
