Key Fob Issue

One day my primary key fob just stopped responding when I press the buttons. The fast key still works when I press the button on the door and the car starts up fine. But the buttons just dont work...at first I thought it was the battery but the light does come on when I press the button. So I figured maybe it just became deprogrammed so I went home to grab my spare key fob and it has THE SAME PROBLEM??? How can 2 key fobs get deprogrammed at the same time???? I replaced both batteries too still nothing...this has to be a problem w/ the car right?

The same thing happened to me the day after I bought my Evo & rolled it out of the lot. I had to get my car towed to the dealership and when the towing company put the hooks underneath the car, they scratched part of the bottom of the front bumper, which made me a little upset. The dealer's response was "the car lost it's programming".

Just have the car towed back to the dealership via Roadside Assistance and have the dealership look at it.

Can I just take the keys to the dealer?? Do I have to actually take the car in for them to see?? Dealerships in NYC are so annoying, have to leave it there overnight for the smallest problems...
