Auto door locks?

You may want to look up this feature: KP Technologies offers an add on module that does just this. I had a few of their modules on my 05 and really loved them

Anyway, good luck, hope you find a solution.

Yeah, I'm really glad our cars don't have the annoying seat belt dinger and auto locking doors. One of my big likes about the car. I do think at this stage in the game it should be an option built into the computer like GMs have been doing for years now in the Tahoe etc... Its got all the sensors (esp if you have the nav) I wonder if they could add it with just software...?

at this price point, it ought to be an option.
one thing i do not understand about some manufacturers is why they choose NOT to integrate features that are cheap to implement. For example, all luixury cars should have auto up and down on ALL windows, period. it's a cheap relay and cheap electronics. no reason not to.
same for the locking feature... it should be a switchable option, like it is on the TL. i also like how the TL allows you to auto unlock when you pop the car into park. that's smart. and the manufacturer leaves it up to the driver to decide what the car does do. OTOH, for some stupid reason, the TL leaves out auto up/down on the rear windows. WTF? stupid... I want the implementation of value, not the perception of value (e.g. the RL has auto on all four windows while the TL does not... i'm sorry, is that part of the $15,000 upgrade package? a-holes.)

as someone that does not have kids, i don't care for auto door locks. as a parent, i can see wanting it. otherwise, who cares? are you trying to open your door while driving so often that you need the car to lock it for you once you put the car in gear? is your wife/gf trying to escape from the car while you are driving? why does it matter if the door is locked while you drive if you don't have kids?

I just want my car to lock so I don't have to worry about people walk up to me and open my car door at the stop light. It is not that it has happen before, but it is just like the air bags that I don't think I'll use. I saw a show on TV about a guy was car jacked due to his doors were unlocked at a stop light.
My Sequoia locks its doors when I put the car from P to D and unlocks and I put it from D to P. It is that simple.
