So having issues with PaaK right now, so had to quickly move my car and didn't feel like running upstairs to grab my key.
Used my phone to remotely unlock the car (that does still work)... opened car door... and found the car was fully in "accessory mode" meaning that the car was fully usable - get into settings, radio, phone connected, etc.
I had been expecting a password prompt to unlock the car and start it... but I was never able to get a prompt. If I tried to turn on the car, it'd say "no key" but never prompted me for backup password.
This seems like a concerning security risk... this a bug??
