Default 3 issues with 2008 5.7 hemi

I bought a 2008 durango 5.7 hemi one year ago, it is such an amazing ride.... but things started to pop up... got 3 different issues i need help with...
1- Remote starter key won't function from a distance, i have to be really close to the car and press as hard as i can on the key... i already tried 2 different batteries for the key...
2- I hear a clicking sound coming from the bottom of the car on sharp & fast turns... no clue what is that, i'm sure its not from the tires and also not from the front part of the car.
3- The rear left tire pressure sensor isn't giving any reading, can it be fixed or do i have to replace it ? would there be any issues driving with the tiris warning lights on ??

Thnx guys for the help.... much appreciated

1. Do you have two fobs? Do both of them do this? My OEM remote start works quite a ways. Is your remote start fob seperate from the main key or part of it?
2. Not sure
3. If it's a bad sensor, you can get them replaced at Walmart for $50 plus the cost of dismounting the tire and rebalancing it. Won't hurt anything with the TPMS sensor on.

update update...

1- the key issue is now sorted... worked perfectly few days later without doing any work on it...

2- Seems i was a bit wrong, the sound is coming from the front part when doing hard turn, and also if i floor the throttle from a dead stop, also if braking hard... any one has a clue ?? would it be the engine mounts ??

3- warning signals are off now, sensor working fine... all by itself
