Sounds like an internal wiring /solder fault on the Gm.

Doors weren’t double locked (how do I even do that?)
I couldn’t open doors from inside the car

The fact that you can’t open the doors from the inside shows they are either child locked from the toggle of the open door or they are “double locked”. Double lock is what the car does when locked with the key tumbler or remote when ignition is off. You can lock someone in your car... It is supposed to be a deterrent as if you break a window you still can not open a door.

How do you double lock with the remote?
