i'm betting since the doors lock when you get up to 15 mph. that at a stop light
or any other time like at a drive thru window if someone tries to push the unlock button it won't unlock the doors.

if some ghetto *** is smart enough to use the button on the outside of my car when i'm sitting at a light or stopsign, i'll quickly show him the error of his ways and present my bear arms in his face. doubtful anyone other than z owners know about the button because everyone that sees me open my doors stare at me like they saw jesus or something.

From another thread on this forum...

Tested it. With two fobs, car not running, I put fob "a" in the cup holder, fob "b" in my pocket, closed the door, and locked it with the button under the outside door handle. Two beeps; car locks. I unlock it, lock it again, two beeps. Walk away. Leave fob "b" in house, go to car (fob "a" still in cup holder), try to unlock, will not unlock. Get fob "b" from house, car unlocks. Leaving fob "a" in car did not make it behave any different than if it wasn't in there. Of course if I try to lock the car without having a fob on me, and have a fob in the cup holder, it beeps like crazy when I try to lock it.

Could location of the key inside the car made much difference? Say it was in her pocket near the door you were opening. The same distance required from the sensor, just on the other side?

Cause I found out the other day if two people walk up to the car at the same time and the fob is my pocket. My passenger cannot use the unlock function even though I am in proximity of the sensor on my side.

Maybe your girl didn't realize that she hit the fob one time too many and the doors reopened. Or while she slept she accidently hit a button. I own 2 cars now with fobs and I have never ever ever had any locking issues in over the last few years. And believe me I done tried to beat the fob system cuz my wife drives the cars too... wanna keep her safe. Being this is such an isolated case I would put my money on human error.

All I can say is try to duplicate the situation again and if it happens? Go to the dealer immediately. And keep us posted.
