I would NOT want mine to lock on it's own, like that.. I can just imagine it locking & me looking inside seeing my keys..

The 5 second lock delay only works after you turn the vehicle off, pull the keys out of the ignition, open the door and then hit the lock switch on the door panel. You will hear a chime and then after you close the door the locks will engage 5 seconds later.
If you hit the door lock switch twice it locks immediately.

That's after the last door is closed. Gives you time to close the driver's door, open the rear passenger door or hatch, and will lock in 5 secs. If any door remains open for 60 secs, the lock will engage with said door still being open.

If you found a virus that stops the car from locking on it's own, I'm all ears. I want this virus! I really can't stand a car that "thinks" for me. I'm not that stupid. If I want the locks locked, I'll lock them and vice verse. I was able to disarm my Honda's auto lock but not the one that locks the car after you hit the unlock button but don't get in. Defeats the ability to unlock the car from the house and send a kid out to the car to get something.

The 09 Company Car that I drive 2-3 times a week locked yesterday within 5 seconds of me getting out. I DID NOT touch the inside lock button before exiting. This is the 3rd or 4th time it's happened to me, and another driver has had it happen twice. I was always dropping a window before exiting but the windows no longer work reliably so you must have the key in hand when getting out even for the most minute of time.
It's all covered in the owners manual and if you don't have one, they are on this site for reading or download.

I was just glad to get info on the 5 sec. delay feature. Will keep that in mind and hopefully every time I get outta the car I will remember to have key in hand.
