Push button start with keyless entry. Vehicle does not give audible warning when you leave the vehicle running on exit. This is a safety hazard and could cause death if parked in your home garage. It is very easy put the gearshift in park and exit the vehicle without turning off the engine. (I have done this twice within a 3 month period) an audible warning on exit, which indicates the motor is still running, would prevent this from taking place.
