First experience with remote auto door unlock

Remove this ad
Well, learned something today.

I drove the car to work, got out, clicked the fob to lock the car. I saw it lock. Then, like a dummy, I walked up to the car, looked in the window and saw the security light turn on and just touched the doorhandle to check it, and walked away.

8 hours later I came back to the car, noticed that the driver's door was open about 1/4" and car was unlocked. I said "Hmmm". Looked inside the car, didn't see anything out of order, got in and drove home.

After thinking about this for a little while, I realized that when I went back towards the car to look through the window, it had automatically unlocked (as designed with the fob).

Fortunately, nobody disturbed anything at the work parking lot (usually no problems anyways). Good thing I wasn't at the mall! I'm going to have to pay attention to this better, or else disable the automatic unlock feature. My wife needs to be aware of this also. (Whew!)

Anyone else have this experience ?
