So one time I unlocked my mom’s car with the remote from inside the house. I took a little while to leave though and the car has an automatic thing where it automatically locks again if left for a few minutes.

When I finally got to the car and pulled the door open, the relock triggered literally as I was halfway through opening the door. So it was kept half closed. Kinda like when you close it but don’t put enough force into it? Hard to explain. Anyway I felt like I was being pranked.

        Most vehicles with this feature don’t relock if they detect a key inside the vehicle.

          Most shouldn’t lock when they detect a key inside.

          Sadly that detection is not very reliable in my experience.

      I’d take a vehicle being unlocked when it’s supposed to be locked any day of the week over being locked when it’s supposed to be unlocked.
