So I've recently started to have a problem with getting my key fob to unloc k my car (2017 Subaru Outback) when it is extremely cold out and my car has been sitting overnight. This has only started to occur within the last two days and only is an issue in the morning after my car has sat outside over night.
I can get the car unlocked using my key and it starts and performs perfectl y normal in every other way. I am also able to lock my car with the key fob without any issue after it has been driven. The fact that once the car hea ts up the key fob has no issue makes me think it is an issue internal to th e car and not the key fob.
However, what doesn't make sense to me is that I have been able to use the key fob to unlock my car after being at work and having my car sit outside for about 8 hours. The key fob even works from an extended distance so it d oesn't seem like it is a issue with the battery within the key fob (I've al so only had the car since September '16 so I would think the key fob batter y would last longer than that).
I don't have a remote start option and the key fob looks like this:
