You can enable touchless open instead of touching the phone on the door handle.

Makes sense since you left the car off that long the drive readiness system finally shutdown. Like you said, kind of like shutting down a computer and turning it on again. I find it strange that it's unreliable to the point they even tell you to carry your key fob or digital key just in case.
