Dave, have your battery load tested. Rule-out the battery first & go from there. A low battery has been behind the problem with all kinds of seemingly mysterious electronic (FOB recognition, for example) problems. JMHO, but check the battery's 'health'.
2nd, when was the last time the FOB batteries were changed-out, if ever?

G/L, keep us posted.

Put the fob in the slot in the glove compartment with the fob buttons pointed toward the passenger side of the car. The fob should work there, even if the fob battery is dead. If the fob still isn't recognized, it's the car battery that needs replacing.

Car was hit in door. Would that have anything to do with the body control module? or is that what it's called?
