I unplugged my battery for 30 minutes. That solved the problem (probably only temporarily - it hasn't returned for 100 km). I've heard that the BCM has to be either replaced and/or re-programmed for an actual fix.
Hey NegZero, is your fix still working for you? I ask since I also have a '17 Touring Sedan (bought last month - also in TO) and have just run into the same proximity unlock problem....
UPDATE: I did some further testing.
If I use the key fob (either to lock or unlock or panic button or remote start - somehow communicate with car via the fob), then immediately afterwards, I can use the proximity entry. It works. After sitting for, say, 30 seconds, the proximity entry no...
Thanks but there is no specific setting for proximity unlock. I did turn off and on all other related settings, including rebooting the headunit, to no avail.

Everything's been working dandy. Till today. Went grocery shopping, got back to car and tried to open trunk with my hand. No go, had to use button on key fob. Then, driver's door wouldn't open with my hand either. Had to use fob.

Had the same problem with the Honda trunk tray. Sprayed it with some grip stuff I found at Home Depot. It worked!

Finally received a reply from Honda Canada (for anyone else interested in the future):
"... thank you for your interest in our products! It is recommended to purchase the Honda Plus Extended Warranty at point of sale; however you may purchase it below the 5 year and 100,000 kms mark."
Hello all,
I've asked this question to Honda Canada (both via email and their Facebook page) but they don't seem to care to reply.
I'm looking into buying a new Civic. I'm also interested in the extended warranty from Honda Canada. I'd rather not buy it at car-buying time.
Can I buy it...
