I've had this intermittently too. Last weekend one key wouldn't even start the Jeep (or shut off the alarm). Luckely we had both keys there and the other worked.
I'm sitting at the dealer now while it gets checked out. Unfortunatly both keys are working today. We'll see how this goes...

I have the same problem with both fobs. Have replaced both batteries & looked at the contacts, all appears to be intact.
The fact that so many people are having the same issue, and the fob works after you put it back into the ignition and start the vehicle tells me there is an issue with the wireless control module.

Random Key Fob Issue
2017 JKU Rubicon same issue with the key fob here and the vehicle is only One year old. Just happened to me again last night. Other issues The damn radio resets when it feels like, on occasion my power windows just refuse to work and the check engine light appears and leaves whenever it wants. Fan runs at max speed in sub freezing temps and concurrent with the temp gauge not working. The dealer keeps on saying bring it in when it is malfunctioning. WTF.

I've got a 2008 Jeep Liberty Sport V6 that was running rough and throwing misfire error codes. I changed the spark plugs—same part, gapped, torqued to 15lb with a torque wrench. The old plugs were definitely worn, and the car has been running better.
But within a couple days, it threw the P300 misfire code again. I did clear the codes, so it seems to be a new occurrence. It hasn't indicated a cylinder, no P301, P304, just P300 "random misfire."
This vehicle doesn't have plug wires, exactly. The plugs each have their own ignition coil right on top.

See my post from today "Power Locks Issue". If the switches on the door don't lock then try what I said in my post. Actually it was called "Power Windows Issue" but really refers to power locks. Hopefully it works for you.

While there are a few different reasons that a keyless entry remote might stop working, most of them are pretty easy to check yourself. The most common problem with these car key fobs is that the batteries just go dead over time, in which case replacing the battery should fix the problem

Take the key fob apart and check for broken contacts or misaligned buttons. Reprogram your remote yourself or have a professional do it. Replace your remote if necessary. vidmateinstagram video download

Does not work when the Jeep has been off a period of time
My remote start does not work after the Jeep has been off for awhile. I drive it, park and then try to start and then it works. Could this be an indication that my battery is going and
does not have a min amount of volts to use the remote?
