srfwito Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 the key fob on my cmax se only works to lock or unlock the doors just after i get out of the car when its been in the ignition. if i go in the house for any length of time (maybe under 5 minutes) it wont unlock the doors. Never seen anything like it on a new car. Just bought it yesterday (1-27-13). wondering if anyone else has had this problem. also the dome lights only come on when the door is opened when you are in the car and the key is in the ignition. strange too. i have read the manual on both of these problems with no luck.

roninsd Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Since you just got it, I'd take it back to the dealer for service ASAP. It shouldn't work that way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 My SE that I got yesterday as well doesn't work like that. Make the dealer fix it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srfwito Posted February 4, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 (edited) took it to the dealer today. it was still in transport mode. so that made the key fob and dome lights not work correctly. took about 20 minutes they gave me afull tank of gas, two ford hats and i was on my way. im glad thats all it was.

Celina Wakley Posted November 15, 2013 Report Share Posted November 15, 2013 You may needs to reset keyless programming. For re programing ford see instruction here :http://programkeyfob.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
