    Hey guys, couldn't find anything in search, but I'm wondering if anyone else has had issues with locking the doors with either the touch to lock on the door handle or with the key fob.

    Unlocking doesn't have any issues, but I have to press the key fob multiple times to get the truck to lock fairly regularly. Any insight that y'all have/same experiences are appreciated.

    Try changing the fob battery. In order to interact with the door the truck has to "see" that the fob is in proximity. Low battery voltage would produce both symptoms.

    Cool that sounds like an easy fix, I'll try my spare fob and report back!
