when its cold out my keyless entry won't work. The past two days I have tried to start my car and when I turn it over it does nothing no lights no sound, and the key is stuck in the ignition. I have tried everything to get it out, then finally it gives me my key back. I got a jump and my car started. I took it to have battery and alternator checked and they are fine. WHAT is wrong with my car?!?!

If it started with a jump but did absolutely noting like you said when it wasn't geting a jump it's the battery almost garunteed, really cold weather makes a battery weaker and unless they checked it in the exact same conditions as when it wouldn't start they're test wont be accurate for the condition. I suggest geting a new batter, one that is has a higher rating for the cold cranking amps (CCA).
