...jammers are still a problem. I hope I use the right word here: By jammer I mean a strong HF-noise emitter which is blocking the transmission from remote control to car.

Yes, that is true.

Note that it's not just malicious jamming; there are plenty of legitimate transmitters that can interfere with RF remote controls - and, of course, faulty equipment can have the same effect.

I experienced this recently when parked near a GSM tower (here): the remote locking would not work - I had to physically turn the key in the lock.

So, be sure that your car has actually received the command...

Absolutely!!
