Some LED lights create interference with garage door openers & key fobs. Maybe you're parking near a security light or holiday decorations?
Aurora borealis?
electromagnetic interference is a real thing.. driving down the highway to a small town in california there is one little stretch of road just outside the city that will drop bluetooth connections every single time and cut my phone from my car so my music stops
what happens when you put the fob in a pringles can and aim it directly at the car?
I've seen a couple posts on a Honda Accord forum complaining about the same problem on fairly new cars. No solution posted unfortunately.
I don't think it's likely just interference, or it would be something you hear about happening with other manufacturers since they all use the same frequency. I also don't think it would be so persistent.
Someone had a theory that it's some kind of interference that triggers a security lockout on the car, trying to stop a brute force attack. Sounds possible, but it's just a wild guess with no data.
