Remote central locking

Hi, can anybody help me please.

I have had two instances when I have gone to my car and found somebody has been in it. It appears they open it and go through everything but on both occasions nothing was taken.

According to the police there is a device that sends out hundreds of codes and when held near the door handle unlocks it.....

My car is a 62 plate focus ecoboost 1.0 litre, is there any way I can disable the remote (keyfob) locking so I have to insert the key to unlock / lock it?

Any help much appreciated.

    Do you have keyless entry?

    No, just remote or key. Only keyhole on drivers doors

    I know a Ford dealer can disable keyless entry, but I don't know about remote lock/unlock, might be worth asking them.

    I've not heard of brute force attacks like that before.

    Do you check your car is locked every time you leave it? I know they can jam the signal to leave it unlocked.

    Yes always watch and make sure the lights flash twice. Might give the local dealer a call - Thanks
