Smart locks

This feature attempts to help prevent you from locking yourself out of
the vehicle if your key is still in the ignition.

When you open the driver’s door and you lock the vehicle with the
power door lock control (on the driver or passenger door trim panel), all
the doors will lock, then the driver’s door will automatically unlock
reminding you that your key is still in the ignition.

The vehicle can still be locked, with the key in the ignition, using the
manual lock control on the door, locking the driver’s door with a key, or
using the lock control on the remote entry transmitter.

If the driver’s door is closed, then the vehicle can be locked from any
method, regardless of whether the key is in the ignition or not.

The autolock feature will lock all the doors when:
• all the doors are closed,
• the ignition is in the 3 (RUN) position,
• you shift into any gear putting the vehicle in motion, and
• the brake pedal is released and the vehicle attains a speed greater

than 5 mph (8 km/h).

The autolock feature repeats when:
• any door is opened then closed while the ignition is in the 3 (RUN)

position, and
