Have a 2014 Ford Escape. The keyless remote does not function until I am within 20' or I can see the car. I park in garage at work and finding my car sometimes is a challenge. My Subaru 2005 worked from a much greater distance. Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas?

My remote would do that when low on battery.try switching out the battery or maybe the range on the factory remote it 20'. Or you can upgrade your alarm system I upgraded to a clifford remote start that was easily 3x the range.

Thanks - I've only had the car 5 months but will look into what the range should be.
