Not sure if anyone will know about this but I will shoot my shot.

The problem I am having is that when I press the unlock button twice on my remote key, the only door that unlocks is the driver's side door and not the passenger doors. I thought maybe the remote needed a new battery so I got a new one and changed it. Well, it did not fix the issue. My father cleaned the battery terminals on the car and still nothing. I reprogrammed the remote to the car and also still nothing. Someone please help if you know anything!!!

Hello,

So just to clarify, when you use the fob you can only unlock the driver side front door, correct?
Is this issue just happened all of a sudden?
Are you able to unlock the passenger side door from the unlock button on the driver side door?
And is this a factory remote?

Here are some helpful info on key fobs:

Please let me know.
Thank you.
