A method of securing a vehicle includes, signaling a control device, e.g., a key fob, to provide an alert to notify an operator of the vehicle when the control device is currently outside a pre-defined detection area, and either a window of the vehicle is currently disposed in a lowered position, or a door lock of the vehicle is currently disposed in an unlocked state. Upon the control device authenticating the signal, an alert component of the control device emits an alert signal, such as a visual alert, auditory alert, or tactile alert.
