Default Key Fob falls off keychain

Anyone else have the problem where that little post on the key fob pulls loose allowing the fob to come off any keychain that you have attached it to? (I am talking about the little plastic post by the panic button on the remote, where you hook in a keychain.)

Default Yep, same thing

It really sucks, too. This happened to both of my keys, so I can't put them on a key ring anymore, but have to carry them separately. Pretty disappointing.<p>Miles

Default I actually prefer to carry the folding key "naked"

First of all, the folding key is really too big for a key ring. And like all keyrings, the other keys tend to jingle around when you are driving. This way I just have a single black fob sticking out of the ignition. Neat and clean (and silent).<p>Keeping the folding key loose also makes it easier for me to leave the car running when I get my mail or when I start it up at the office. Finally, because I have a garage door opener to access my apartment, often times I can get away with bringing only the folding key with me when I go out.<p>Tom Halter<br>98.5 2.8 QM Pearl/Onyx<br>Soon to have Xenon headlights!
