Your bumping the key remote in your pocket common problem


I wish it was that simple but unfortunately it's not that case I get home or work or girlfriend's house lock my car and hang my keys up so no possible chance of bumping it I don't know what else it can be and randomly my mates car is now doing the same thing

Mate this has happened to me, only once though.... Ive got a Jan 2016 build SS that i bought brand new.With my job i leave home at 2.30am, one morning i walked into my garage to find my boot fully open, im like WTF thought id sprung someone trying to steal my car. Its only happened once though like i said. I also get random alert that my boot lid is open if say i put something in the boot then start the car. Hasnt happened for a while, and i spose i should get Holden to look at it.. Thought i was the only one..

Mate I just got a call from Holden saying they just checked my car and couldn't fault it they put the scanner on it and found nothing wrong with it i called 2 mechanics and 3 auto electricians they all say it's the BCM it needs to be replaced and recode the car the mechanics and auto electricians say it wouldn't come up in a scan because it happens randomly you need to have the scanner on the car at the right time for it to come up so I just emailed Holden and told them about it so waiting for a reply from Holden and it apparently is a known issue to Holden but they don't want to admit it they say it's the first time hearing of this lol

I know that theres a fix for the Boot Look that Holden will replace if you tell them whats going on. It doesnt happen often but i will get it done, but yeah finding the Boot open was a worry, like i said only happen once in nearly 3 years. The doors though were locked when it happened to me
