Autolocking doors
My son missed the school bus this morning, so I drove him there. When he tried to get out of the car at his school, the doors were locked (transmission still in "drive"). I never noticed before that they do that above a certain speed (since the car is always in "park" when I get out).
Does anyone know how to cancel the autolocking feature?
Thanks!

Kevin, i believe there are instructions on how to change this in the owners manual , I know I did on mine...sorry don't have the manual handy to give you the instructions or the page number. You couldl ook on ToyotaIGuide.com for the instructions, the manual is there also.

Was your son in the back seat or front seat? That could also be the difference, because I'm pretty sure that my husband has gotten out of the front passenger seat while the car was running and not in park...

The state of the automatic locking or unlocking of the doors is definately a personal choice. I am glad that Toyota has given us the ability to make and impliment those personal choices. The way I see it, there is no right or wrong way, just personal preference.

You do realize the TCH is going to YELL at you for opening a door when NOT in Park. Audible alarm, warning on the MFD. Regardless of how you have the locking set (>16 mph versus not in park). Just put the **** thing in Park.
