Even my 2001 Toyota Solara's computers are subject to this phenomenon.
About 10 years ago, the key fob stopped working. I changed its battery and also tried the backup key fob. No luck. Problem was in the car. Took it to Toyota dealer and got a $1000 quote to fix it, cuz its computers. I laughed and left.
About 1 year ago, after getting the car battery replaced, it started working again. Found out by accidentally setting off emergency alarm on the key fob.
