[AT] driver convenience systems

The only real convenience our 2017 Grand Caravan has is the electric 
remote controlled side doors and the rear liftgate.  you can open them 
with the key fob that also can remotely start it. The real problem is 
that it is too sensitive.  It takes 2 pushes of the button to operate 
the features, but they will work inside a building 500 ft away.  Right 
after we got it, I was inside a building and my wife was sitting in the 
car at the end of the parking lot.

Suddenly the rear gate opened........    I have not carried the fob  
since.  I got a couple of RFID pouches to carry them in but they are too 
bulky to fit in pockets.   You can never be sure if the doors will stay 
locked.  There should be some way to turn off the key fob......
