Probably related to stray RF that shouldn't be transmitted. Here's a story of a pirate radio station found in California that caused this sort of problem.

Here's another idiot that setup a pirate radio station that interfered with nearby air traffic control.

FCC rules and spectrum control should prevent such a thing, but the problem is that idiot humans often get involved, doing their own thing and disregarding laws and regs. The idiots get a $10,000-$20,000 fine when caught. (Which they often don't pay.) And they deserve more. Anyone doing something stupid like that near an airport deserves some lead shot in the butt or worse.
Yeah, vehicles depending solely on wireless fobs are worrisome. Mine is a 2015, fob actually plugs into the dash. It's only wireless for a few features, but has a pull-out key for the door lock. Btw, fobs have always had battery failure potential. But the fob batteries should last a couple of years, so replacing them once a year should be more than enough. Carrying one around with you should be unnecessary.
I don't think it's technology biting you in the butt, it's idiots. If you actually get bitten. Right now, you're just worried about getting bitten.
