The fact that your car wouldn't start while you were holding the fob, but did start while you had it near the start button may be an indication that the battery in the fob needs replacement. Worth a try at least.

So I doubt this is the issue as the car would have reacted differently. It would have given me the flashing yellow key, or it would not have gone into accessory mode. Also, the car is only a few months off the assembly line. The Key battery should not be dead!
