My 08 has the opposite issue. I open the door and it doesn't recognize it. And then somedays it's totally fine. Seems to be worst when it's really cold (10F and colder). So when I exit the vehicle, the accessories don't shut off, and when I enter the vehicle the interior lights don't come on. Gets to be kind of annoying sometimes.

I've searched and looked for threads on the door switches, but have yet to come up with anything. I'm sure it's a simple switch but I don't relish pulling it all apart in the middle of winter.
 
Ameoba, read above your post. I have the same thing. Its the door locking mechanism. They do not sell the microswitch separate, you have to replace the entire electronic locking mechanism.
Seriously? Damn. I guess I can live with it. I imagine that part is about $250.
