I have a 2004 Malibu Maxx that is experiencing problems with BOTH Key Fobs. I have replaced the batteries and they are still bad.

I suspect the reciever in thew car. My Impala had the same problem. Guess I will take the car into the Dealer.

Anyone experience this?

I solved my problem. I found another post about defective solder joints in the fob. I had them and re-soldered them.

I would have tried complaining to the dealer and see if you could get a new one....

has to be a problem with the key fob because it controls all those functions. push unlock and the lights will flash. hold unlock down and the front windows roll down. if it is doing it on its own it is a nissan problem. if you are unknowingly holding the button down its your problem. just take it to the dealer cause it could be the receiver and not the fob. my $0.02
