The passenger door handle sensor drains the battery if the car is not driven daily. The vehicle would unlock and relock for the last couple of years if the key fob were within 10 feet of the passenger front door. It will lock and unlock until the fob is moved. Even when the key fob is not nearby, it is always searching for one, draining the battery very quickly. I have to jump my car every Monday if I do not drive the car on Saturday and Sunday. We took it to the Honda dealer, and after paying a diagnostic fee, we were told that it could not be repaired, but the whole assembly could be replaced for a few thousand dollars.
Dash screen states check keyless access system. Dealer states that when the error code was pulled it stated the passenger door handle was not sensing touch and needed replacement. Repair covered under new car warranty.
