The problem is no one can control this remotely. Some people would prefer your access to the vehicle be conditional.
Most cars still have a physical lock hidden under the handle for emergencies, like opening the car when the battery is dead.
All remote unlock is doing is adding an unnecessary insecure remote layer on top of that for convenience.
I think weex means loan vendors and carmakers would like your access to your car to be controlled by them not the driver -- so they can lock you out if you don't pay them every month.
