Valet mode

Standard immobilisers installed to your vehicle use an electronic chip that sends an indication. The system will look for the code that was sent by the key to begin the vehicle.

If a thief gets their hands on the keys to your car or fob, they will not be able to start your car ghost immobiliser even if it is parked nearby. The only way for them to get your car away is to physically take it away on a flatbed lorry which is highly unlikely.

Valet mode comes as an option with your ghost immobiliser. When it is activated the glove box of your car and trunk will be locked to ensure that anyone stealing your car won't have any personal belongings to take. It will also limit the speed of your Tesla to ensure that it is not able to be driven at speeds of more than 70mph. It also will disable absurd modes.
