Yeah, I shouldn’t have made that FOB cover sound like THE answer. It is not. The answer is a smaller indented FOB and software that has auto lock back after a time of my choosing.
And that is what I did as well. Put a cover on it and that helped a lot. But still, I am trying to get it across to GM, an $80K vehicle that when accidentally unlocked, will never lock itself back is beyond ridiculous. If I crank it with the FOB then do not get in and go within a certain amount of time, it shuts down. Unlock it accidentally while downtown at midnight, it just remains unlocked. Too easy for GM to fix.
But it has to be the fob. 5 past trucks with fobs and I carry my wife’s Acadia fob if I am not driving the truck. Have an accidental button press maybe once a year.

This question has a couple of parts.
1. I have owned Chevy Trucks even before the FOB existed. I can count on one hand how many times the FOB buttons were accidentally pushed in my pocket. Until this vehicle. It is now rare to walk away from a locked vehicle and it be locked when I come back. I came back to my truck today and it was cranked and unlocked.
So are there a lot of complaints about FOB sensitivity?
2. If I get out of my truck and walk away, it locks itself. However, if the FOB gets pressed to unlock, it will stay unlocked. Why? Is there a setting I am missing?
