I decide to run up and get a couple of new batteries and now it works. I am hoping it's that simple but with my luck I am doubtful. Are our electronic keys problematic or pretty reliable?


Car won't start or car won't crank? If it won't crank, the key fob battery isn't your problem.
Sounds like the car battery went dead. You can charge it and it will start the car. An hour later,,,,nothing. If so,,that dealer owes you a new one.

They ain't cheap. $110 to $180 bucks

Let's hope it was just the fob batteries. But that is rare.
