This will place more responsibility for ensuring vehicle security with the vehicle manufacturer rather than the consumer","additional_details":"We believe automotive companies adopted keyless entry systems for their cars without sufficient consideration of the insecurity of these systems. This decision has created multiple new attack vectors which the motorist now must defend themselves against (key relay attacks, key cloning), often requiring expensive modifications to property or cars. Car makers should fix this issue. Ghost immobilisers ensure only the owner can start a vehicle, and should be fitted as standard.","committee_note":"","state":"open","signature_count":31,"closing_date":"2027-03-15","created_at":"2026-08-15T17:58:26.140Z","updated_at":"2026-09-16T13:37:40.000Z","rejected_at":null,"opened_at":"2026-09-15T10:46:41.040Z","closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2026-08-15T18:18:30.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_on":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"creator_name":"Timothy Flint","rejection":null,"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[{"acronym":"DfT","name":"Department for Transport","url":"https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/department-for-transport"}],"topics":[],"signatures_by_country":[{"name":"United Kingdom","code":"GB","signature_count":31}],"signatures_by_constituency":[{"name":"Beckenham and Penge","ons_code":"E14001083","mp":"Liam Conlon MP","signature_count":23},{"name":"Birmingham Selly Oak","ons_code":"E14001099","mp":"Al Carns MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Cambridge","ons_code":"E14001149","mp":"Daniel Zeichner MP","signature_count":2},{"name":"Croydon West","ons_code":"E14001188","mp":"Sarah Jones MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"East Wiltshire","ons_code":"E14001217","mp":"Danny Kruger MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Ellesmere Port and Bromborough","ons_code":"E14001222","mp":"Justin Madders MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Gainsborough","ons_code":"E14001243","mp":"Rt Hon Sir Edward Leigh MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Melksham and Devizes","ons_code":"E14001356","mp":"Brian Mathew MP","signature_count":1}],"signatures_by_region":[{"name":"North West","ons_code":"B","signature_count":1},{"name":"East Midlands","ons_code":"E","signature_count":1},{"name":"West Midlands","ons_code":"F","signature_count":1},{"name":"East of England","ons_code":"G","signature_count":2},{"name":"London","ons_code":"H","signature_count":24},{"name":"South West","ons_code":"K","signature_count":2}],"other_parliamentary_business":[]}}}
