    it is not the battery problem. this happened to me once, the dealer replaced a sensor for the door handle under warranty.

    Similar thing happened to me. Can you still use the push button start? For me, they replaced the door module and antenna I think.

    ^^Yes, Engine Start/Off button and trunk still work. But door lock/unlock function is disabled when sensor/module fail.
