Dead keyless remote?

One of my keyless entry remote is dead... happen to anyone here?
Wondering if the dealer will replace it under warranty...

It was dead a few months back... I thought it was just a dead battery...
Just swapped in a new battery tonight.. no luck.

If your vehicle is under the base warranty it is covered. The battery isn't but the transmitter is.

Your 3year 36k warranty cover defective remotes, just not the batteries or water damage. That coverage is nationwide at all dealers.
