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.

    And even more mad if your keys fell out of your pocket into the vehicle, then it locked

      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.
