Description of the problem	Vehicle no longer acknowledged presence of the key fob in vehicle and warned that the vehicle should not be shut off. Key fob was in the vehicle at the time and had been detected to unlock the door automatically and allow ignition of vehicle by pressing start button while fob was in my pocket. Once we stopped the vehicle, it would not restart until 9 or 10 tries of pushing the ignition. After the initial occurrence while driving, it then sporadically had issues with starting. Each time it it would show a warning message that the key fob was not detected, even though it just auto unlocked the doors after sensing the key fob. Dealer replaced key fobs, and problem returned. Two days later nearly stranding my wife while travelling out of town since the car would not initially start. Dealer then replaced the module/computer that controls the keyless functionality. Problem reoccurred a few days later. Dealer will now replace the key fobs again while the vehicle is in for a separate repair.
