This article does not do a good job of explaining what the attack vectors are.
Among other things, this is why I wanted a house with a garage. I just keep my car in the garage.
I'm very much in the minority in my neighborhood though. Everyone seems to use their garage for other things then park in the driveway or on the street. It annoys me to no end.
Garages aren’t at all secure, FYI. There are a number of ways in, from physically hooking the release that hangs from the opening mechanism, to cloning the wireless fob (much, much easier than car fobs.)
