I wouldn’t mind betting that your stop/start isn’t functioning either - not as noticeable as comfort access packing up. As I understand some non-essential features shut down to prevent battery drainage…which makes perfect sense…but the car doesn’t tell you!!
Thanks Seaford.
I thought of that too. I'm keeping the battery charged with a CTEK maintenance charger; however, the issue still persists.
Also, the touch lock on the door handle is intermittent. Wondering if that could be caused by dry, or moisturized hands.
Waiting for a new FOB. If it doesn't cure the issue, I'm thinking they may have to pull the module in the vehicle.
