“The electronic keyless-go system intermittently does not recognize that the key is present. The issue was first noticed in 2008 and brought to the dealers attention within months of purchase when the rear tailgate would not close. Repeated trips to the dealer to address this issue did not correct the issue. The latches, the switches, and the batteries in the keys have all been replaced but the problem persists. In march 2013 the keyless-go system started indicating no key was detected when the car was in motion. …”
