Probably so. Read your owners manual on the radio. It's a pain in the back side anti-theft thing. If someone steals it, it won't work for them once the power has been disconnected. If the manual doesn't tell you how to reprogram it, you will have to take it to the dealer. Nice huh?

I have a 2014 chrysler 300. I work a lot and so have to sleep in my car somedays to get some sleep at all. Anyways, I went to sleep in my backseat today. As far as I know I did not leave any electronics on and car was powered off. When I awoke I unlocked the doors with my door unlock button on my driver's side door and got out. Didn't think anything because I do this 5 days a week. Now I don't know if it's a battery issue or what...my car will do absolutely nothing except allow me to pop the hood and the gas cap now. 2 Answers

Is it a battery issue you think? As far as I know I didn't leave anything on. My fobs won't do anything to my car. My windows won't operate.
