I was sitting in the parking lot with my son after his soccer practice talking to another parent with the car running when the car started to beep at me with the code "cannot detect key fob". The fob was in my purse, on the floor of the passenger side. I had to turn the car off and on again to have the fob recognized.

I took the car to dealer since it's still on warranty and they run some diagnostics and said everything is fine and that it might be my cell phone interfering with key fob. Funny since one day I forgot my cell and still had the same problem had to start the car by pressing the fob on start bottom and then while driving once in a while it starts beeping and says the key fob has left the vehicle. It's so annoying and always keep wondering if next time I'll be able to start vehicle. Perhaps I should have a different dealer to look at it.

I spent $14 to replace the batteries in both keys and still the Durango does not sense the key and will not unlock the doors when pulling on the handle. It seems that every other time I approach the vehicle the locks do not work and other times I grab the handle and it works.

I have had "key fob not detected" intermittently the 2 years I have had the car. The problem is getting worse and has take as many as 6 attempts to get the vehicle started. The dealers have reprogrammed the car and most recently replaced the fob. I do not have much confidence this will fix the vehicle.
