Anyone else experienced this too? it says key fob not detected. This usually happens when I close the door too hard, kind of intermittent but still annoys the hell out of me. any help will be appreciated

Have you checked the battery? It can be either loose or weak. I've had the same problem and replaced the battery, after that everything was okay.

I think it's pretty common. Technology isn't unfailing you know. That comes at the cost of convenience from not having to use the key to turn every time.
