I experienced a very strange issue at the worst possible time yesterday and I'm baffled by it. I'm just curious if anyone has experienced the same.
Unfortunately, it was my dads funeral yesterday and I had to drive back to the family home. After 45 minutes of driving, I got there, got out of the car and went to lock it using the remote but there was no response at all. The remote was clearly working as I could "unlock" the car, the indicators reacted and I could hear the door lock mechanism but I pressed the lock button multiple times and nothing, nada, zilch. I checked all the doors, the boot, made sure the car was off (it's a hybrid), checked the central locking button worked which it did but still the remote wouldn't lock the car. With the hearse arriving any second I had to extract the key from the fob and manually lock the car.
Fast forward a few hours and the car behaved perfectly normal again and I could lock it perfectly fine.
Anyone ever experienced anything like this? I don't know if it was dad winding me up one last time or something I need to concern myself about and book it into the dealership.
