Default RE: 08 Dodge Avenger remote start

My memory might be incorrect about this one, but I remember the Avenger having a metal key. I don't know about the remote start as it was only a test drive. I hear you about the concern about not having a key to unlock the car when the battery goes dead, or the power locks break (as what has happened on my car), or countless other scenarios that could make a seemingly flawless plan to the designers lead to disastrous consequences without a back up plan which causes results like the decaying mass at the bottom of the Atlantic that was "Unsinkable" which killed more than half the crew due to lack of a proper back up plan. Funny how cost saving and lack of thinking about the worst case scenario hasn't dawned yet on manufactures nearly one hundred years after such an example of the importance of a back up plan.
