CONTACT PROBLEM – IGNITION – HONDA CAR

In 2002, the Honda car brand made a major change in its ignition keys and locks. It has moved from the traditional chip wrench with standard cuts to the chip wrench with laser cutter, in other words, high security, in order to improve the safety of their automobiles.

Hondas were reputed to be the most stolen vehicles on the North American continent. Some burglars managed to start the car without the original key in less than a minute.

Thus, this new technology made it possible to increase safety and reduce the risk of theft.
