Might be the battery in your remote is weak.
When you drive out has the remote been in a cold car and when you return the remote is in a warm car? Might me the warmer remote is giving the battery just enough more chemical reaction to work but does not when cold. Try replacing the remote battery.

A few years ago, we had intermittent times that our remotes did not work.
