Journey_SeXT Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 I have the same year and model as yours and I have had zero issues with my fob. What did the dealer do "as a fix"? That info would help. BTW welcome to the forum Diane! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkeaton Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 Moved to the correct section. What's not working and what did the dealer do? Welcome to the forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diane Posted December 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 he sat inside car for a few minutes came out and it worked. I asked him what he did so I could do it when it happens again. He said I would only have to come back and he would need to do it. He took no tools in car. He made it sound like he reset fob....going back tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diane Posted December 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 remote starts only feet from car....locking and unlocking the same.....frustrating. I could start my car from the 3 floor from work before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhh3 Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 Welcome to the forum. I am not a fan of remote starters; seem to have a lot of issues. Journey_SeXT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redtomatoman Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 Mine works from far away. Like 100 yards. I can start my DJ from inside the house or inside a restaurant or whatever. Yours should do the same. Good luck. Peace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolly Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 (edited) I don't use mine unless it's extremely cold out, but it has worked well. Like Red said it works from at least 100 yards. Your dealer sounds like a bit of a jerk, he should have told you what he did. If you have another dealer in the area, you should try them out.

dhh3 Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 (edited) It seems that dealer is just trying to suck the $ out of your wallet. Not very good Customer Service, IMHO. Edited December 24, 2014 by dhh3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtsr Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 Sounds as if the rf module may have a glitch going on. I believe there is a reset procedure posted somewhere recall reading it. Not a normal thing for remote start mine still starts from at least 100 ft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recommend asking the Service Manager for a copy of the work order which would have the description of the repairs. Keep us posted if you can.
