Default auto start question

Now I rolled my Sahara that had auto start and when I first got the Sahara it was a lil finicky I guess u could say but in a few days it started every time I hit the button.... Now my Rubicon sometimes will only beep once and lock doors and other times it will beep twice and start right up.... I tried filling up the tank even tho I know that it starts with gas light on, it just don't stay on, but I filled her up anyway and tried and it was still the same.... I'm clueless of to why it only starts when it wants to.... Does anyone else have this problem too? Any remedies?

I have zero problems with mine. It beeps once and locks the doors when you attempt to activate the remote start but a door is open/ajar.

You might want to check the cut off switch under the hood. If the hood is up and the switch is not depressed then it wont start. Maybe when the jeep was damaged the switch was messed up or does not get depressed all the way or something.

Yep. No problems with mine either except for a door being ajar.
