trunk won't open and door occasionally does not unlock with remote, so i have to use the key to unlock the door.

locked everything manually. 3 days later. come out and now car wont start. all lights on dash, radio comes on but car wont start.

i have the car on a trickle charger overnight. hoping the battery was drained somehow.

someone mentioned that somehow the car does not recognize the key anymore and it disabled the engine.

any thoughts?

thank you in advance.
