    There's no alert or anything to remind you to turn off the engine - if you had a turbo car, you could add a turbo timer and that way it'll turn off your car after a given period of time automatically, but you'll just have to be more careful and remember to turn your car off

    How do you forget to turn off your car when you park? That's like forgetting to wipe after you drop a deuce. LOL

    And no, there is no way the car will give you an indication that its running. But I'm not sure how you could forget that it's still on and walk away...

    I think they do that by design. If you had a pet or a guest in the car and needed to make a pit stop, you can leave your car running (AC), lock the door and the motion detection and alarm would be inactive. Best way to avoid, is to make sure you have the key FOB beep set to beep on lock and you hear it when you press the lock button on the FOB. If you don't hear the beep, the car is still "on" or you pressed the lock button twice and you did not hear the first beep.
