Automatic Door locking (at 10mph)
Is there anyway to disable this feature? I've looked thru the menus in the car and have searched the vehicle manual and found nothing.
Unless they are listed as something else and I'm just overlooking it. Thanks, |

It's a convenience thing. There have been numerous times that I've had to get out of my car after pulling out of a parking spot or trying not to pull up to close to a ticket machine where I'd have to open the door and it's either pull the door handle twice or look for the door locks and unlock the door first (still getting used to the car since I've only had it a such a short time)..
Every other car I've owned has had some way to disable that. |

It's also a safety feature.
I too was annoyed by it at first but it has become second nature to pull the handle twice. -Funk

Unfortunately for you this is a safety feature mandated by the DoT a few years back that anytime the car is in gear and starts to move the doors have to automatically lock. It use to be just one of those neat features some cars had and thus could be disabled but now it's mandated. This feature can not be disabled as far as I'm aware.
