In today’s adventures. Got in the car at home, drove to work, get to work. I can’t find my key fob, checked the app, it won’t lock the car saying the key fob is inside the vehicle. So I spend a half hour feeling like a dummy for losing my fob in car. No luck. I started and stopped it multiple times during the search to cool off the inside bc Florida is horrible and hot. I drive the car home thinking I’ll just start taking stuff apart. What’s on the counter? THE KEY FOB. Sooo, good times hah. Not sure how it’s starting, the other key is nowhere close, so this is a first. Idk man, this is really turning out to be quite the vehicle 😂

Edit: thought maybe I had the digital key, but nope, never downloaded it. Mystery.
 
Ours is doing the same thing. Have you figured out why?
The app won't let me lock it because it says it detects a FOB. Also can't do the touch lock on the handle.
I have found that if I Leave fobs and key card in the house

See if car will start

If it does. There is a card or fob in the vehicle

I might have to try that. I doubt mine will start without either keyfob, and I don't have the smart card (that I know of) and don't have the digital key option either. At least I don't think I do.

might be in with the owners manual or other papers in the glove box...

if they dd not hand you a card key on day of purchase that is where i would start my search..

but if car wont start wit fob or card NOT on you or within fifty feet of car...

then.. i agree exorcism is net option

im betting on card key in glove box..
