keyless entry

I have never had keyless entry on any automobile I ever owned. My
question is this: Will keyless entry open a car door if the weather
outside is icy and the door lock is frozen stiff? Thank you.

Depends on what part is frozen. 95% of the time it's the lock cylinder that
is frozen, so you won't have any trouble unlocking the doors with the
remote.

Keyless entry will unlock the door. It won't do anything about a door
that is frozen shut.

Keyless entry also means you don't use the door lock cylinders and
therefore, the cover over the mechanism doesn't get worn. This means
there is less chance of dirt and water getting in there.
