Sort of sad to picture it really.



Everybody take your spare fob out of storage and give it a hug and let it know you care.
Do you think it's possible that it was so lonely that it was sending out random lock signals to make sure the car was safe? Honestly though, my car locks automatically sometimes and I'm not sure if our car's have that function.

If the car is running and your outside with the keyfob, it will not lock with the handle or remote. But i tried the manual lock inside the door, and the door locked. I then tried to unlock it with the keyfob or by pulling the handle, and it wouldn't unlock. The only way I was able to get inside was by using the small key inside the remote. I don't know why it's designed that way, really strange that it refuse to let you get inside.
