My car has a "push button" electronic key sensing start system. I parked my car, radio running, took my key from car, locked car. Car keeps running indefinately even though key is not in proximity to ignition. If a driver takes his keys from the car and car is in "park", I think vehicle should shut down after an appropriate time delay such as 15minutes. If a person drives his car into a closed attached garage, leaves the car with the key but does not push the "off" button. . . The car will run until out of gas. This is a potential hazard to people in house as exhaust fumes will build up in closed garage. Chrysler can program the electronics to stop the engine after 15 min, if key has left proximity of ignition, and car is in park.
