Unlock problem
My 2008 HHR is acting up. You must hold the fob unlock button down continuously and it takes about 5 seconds to unlock the door. Until recently it responded immediately with one push and release. New batteries in car and fobs. Range seems shorter also, used to remote start from in a store now it's about 50 ft

I think 50 ft. is about what it's supposed to be.
But, if not could be your fob has just decided to not work anymore. I had one do that, shoots a signal but it's the wrong one.
Or the contacts are worn out either the pad the PCB or both.

On a related note, when I was having problems with mine, I eventually got locked out a couple of times. Chevrolet Customer Assistance will send someone out for a free unlock if your car is still covered. It really bailed me out. OnStar won't do anything unless you have already activated it, and a locksmith is $75-80.
I ended up buying 2 new remotes and paying the dealer to program them. My advice is, don't wait too long or you'll be out in the cold, literally.
