The back door automatic release doesn't always work...I've never been able to open it with the button located on the dash. Lately, it has also failed to open when I've utilized the keyfob after the car has stopped and been turned off. I've gone to the rear of the vehicle and pressed the outside entry button...I hear 3 beeps and nothing happens. I press the button on the door and nothing happens. I have then locked and unlocked the doors and tried again to initiate the automatic opening of the back door. I hear another 3 beeps and nothing happens.
I've looked through the manual and can't find anything that helps me with this problem. Please note that my Forester has all the bells and whistles. I wonder if it needs to be reprogrammed. Please advise. Thanks in advance.
