Check your Comfort Access settings. There are two. One is when you touch the door handle. The other is an extended option where it senses as you approach the car.

I can unlock or lock the car from inside about 25 feet away. Don't see any problems.

Stick it under your chin.

It increases the range by about 1.5x.

Or against the top of your head. It works.

I completely encase the fob in my armpit and I get 2x range. Works great unless it's right after a run
