Auto Door Lock trapped the Wife!

At least once after I unlocked by touching the door handle, that annoying shenanigan of automated relocking occured. Do not like arrogant programmers making decisions for me that are none of their business!

 

I guess I'm thinking of times I've touched the door handle inside, then followed through and pulled it open. But yeah you're right: if you just touch it to unlock, it goes back to locked after slight delay.

 

"Wing mirrors folded away"??

 

welcome to the world outside n/a.

 

N.A. mirrors don't fold away on the 2016, do they? Meh, more stuff to fail.

 

May be your wife hit the lock button trying to f*ck with your head. Lol j/k

 

Watch the movie "Christine".

Your car is possessed...

 

I did not. Thanks,

 

That would never happen.

Miss the old manual key.

BTW, too bad it doesn't auto shutdown when no one is in the car for 5 minutes.

 

I've got the opposite "forgets". I leave the car on while re-fueling, get in to go and push the button, turning the car off.

 

Yep, I never had a problem with an old-fashioned "key." Never got locked out. Kept a spare in my wallet if I did. And my old key never needed batteries!!

I agree with having an "automatic shutdown" option in the vehicle settings. That would be great. Shut it down and lock the doors.

(This morning, I just discovered that you can disable the daytime running lights in the settings. I like those LED lights and always have mine on. But the option is there, for those that want to kill the power.)

 

What did the 'Stones say: "Something's gained and something's lost...". The keyless fob has advantages, but it's too dang easy to screw up.

And if you lose it: "Such as cost.".

 

My son in law's father has a model T I am going to drive next week. Not sure it has a key but it has 3 pedals and a steering wheel throttle.

 

You need to smoke a cigarette while doing that.
