Key FOB's stopped working

New to this site. I just bought a 2016 mustang EcoBoost with push button start and both key fobs have stop working completely. Nothing works on the FOB's. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

Seems like some type of programming issue. Only thing you can really do is take it to the dealer.

I have also noticed now that the tire pressure fault tight is now coming on. I heard today that the tire sensor module has something to do with the FOB's and has been happening on other stangs. Just wondering if anyone else has heard anything. Thanks a bunch for replying though!

Entirely possible. We had an Edge in the shop that wouldn't recognize the fob to start and I believe the fix was to replace the TPMS module. Seemed strange but it worked.
