Car will not detect key fob most of the time, or says no key detected, or wrong key. Have changed batteries, happens with both keys. Dealer didn't help.

I have been having a third problem with my car. My key also won't get recognized by the car as well. A car won't that won't start is no good. I know it's not the key fob's battery as the car will tell you when the key fob's battery is low. I have several other posts on here. Read them too before you buy this car.I really regret buying the damn thing. My 2009 Altima was beast. What happened Nissan?

About a week ago my car wouldn't recognize the intelligent key when I was trying to unlock the door from the door handle. I tried over and over, pulled out the key fob and pushed the button and it worked fine. Since it has done that again a few different times, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I have to hit it repeatedly until it finally works.

Then this morning I got in and went to start the car and it wouldn't start. The dash gave me an error message of "Key ID Incorrect" but then after a few attempts it worked. Wondering what's going on with my key?
