Was it about the signal amplifiers which make the car think that the keyfob is next to the car, while it is 100 ft away in the owner's house?

I saw a security paper on this, but can't find the link now. Apparently, this is another instance of car manufacturers being cheap (like GM ignition switches) because there are a few inexpensive solutions that might have prevented this. Now owners are advised to keep their keyfobs in the fridge (for electric shielding)
