Have searched everywhere to find an answer, and the closest I’ve gotten is an Accord forum with someone explaining its an overactive connection between my key fob/trunk sensor, and the trunk thinking my fob is in my trunk. Unfortunately this is never, ever the case, and it usually happens when I’ve already climbed into the car and locked the doors. It’s a huge safety hazard, whether I don’t catch it and start driving or I have to get out of my car multiple times to deal with it (not an issue in broad daylight or at my work, but I don’t live in Beverly Hills, and don’t always feel safe have to climb in and out multiple times).
Tried to address it at the dealership I purchased from—Honda Cars of Corona—and they had the gall to tell me I was wrong and something like the trunk opening on its own wouldn’t happen. One told me to just “switch out the key fob†with my spare, which would be great except.... it was a brand new car as of two days before that, and if there is truly an issue with the fob, they should be replacing it with a new one, not reducing me to one viable option and the potential of having to purchase one for $350 a few years from now.
