Key Fob/Remote Low Battery MID Message

How many times did you get this message? I bought my 09 TL SH-AWD Tech 9 months ago and I got this message at least six times. Once the message appeared, it seems to appear for two remotes! The first time I saw the message I put new batteries (CR2032) in two remote controls. I kept the old batteries. When I get this message now I change the battery for an old one and the message disappears. Sometimes I remove the battery and I put the same and the message disappears for 1 or 2 months! I mentioned the problem to the dealer. He changed the battery in my remote and updated computer. It has not solved the problem.

I am careful not to leave the remote near an electronic device as mentioned in the manual but it changes nothing.

What can I do? How the car detects that the remote battery is low?

Thank you
