Auto Door Locks

Some may not understand. I DON'T WANT THE DOORS TO AUTOMATICALLY LOCK. LIKE MANY THINGS IN LIFE, I WANT TO CHOOSE WHEN THEY OCCUR! There are times I want to lock my home when I walk out the door, but if I go out to sit by the pool, I would prefer that my door not automatically lock behind me!

Not sure Like said earlier, this is a standard feature on alot of new cars and trucks these days. My moms 09 Impala does the same thing. Gear shifter must be put into park then they unlock.

The doors being locked is a safety feature in case of an accident. Green live long and find another battle to fight.

I like the auto-locks, I set mine to unlock only when I shut off the motor..

So at a drive thru, or etc they are still locked...

My wifes Mopar needs to get to a speed before auto lock-down.. Not crazy about that.. First time we test rode it, was a surprise.. LOL

But her doors can be opened by the inside handles anytime.. Unlike the HHR.

I went looking for this too. Not very hard but but I don't want the back doors unlocking at all unless it is manually. Got a page? thx
