I only tried this one time while I was in a restaurant getting ready to leave. Obviously, before Covid. When I got in the car with my key fob in my pocket and my wife's key fob in her purse, I put my foot on the brake and tried to put it in gear and it just sat there. It wouldn't go in gear. If I remember correctly I think I had to pick my profile before it would go into gear. Or maybe I just shut it off and started it again. It was way back in November when I tried it.
I should try checking it again since my last software update. Also, I should try leaving my key fob in the house and try to drive off without having my key fob with me. If it lets me drive off that is a SERIOUS problem. Hopefully, that's not the case.
