It may be that the battery backup has failed.
I'm also suspecting a bad ignition switch - no end to the gremlins that this issue can cause.

On a UK model, if you unlock the car using the key in the lock barrel, only the driver's door unlocks (the front & rear trunk releases, fuel flap & passenger door remain locked but these can be unlocked using the button on the dash) also the horn beeps twice, and the alarm will sound if you don't turn the ignition on quickly enough, but the car will fully lock using the key. The car will only fully unlock by using the fob.
