Default Door Locks?

for some reason idk if its just my tc or does all tcs not have automatic doorlocks when driving?

my sister has a 07corolla and when she shifts into reverse the doors all automatically lock.?
so does my moms 08 camry..

my tc does not do this, is it just mine or are all tcs this way?

i have to lock them myself with the button on the door?


any help

The tC does NOT do this. Normal.

I hate cars that do that, btw.

It's so much harder to shove people out of the door while going 80 when they auto-lock...

I am very happy they dont.. it would have been the first thing I would have wanted to disable on the car.

You have something other than the stock setup or scion alarm system doing that for you then. That is not part of the scion security or stock package.

But that is nothing like what he is saying. He is asking about doors that lock when you start the car or put the car in gear and unlock when you shut it off again.

The keyless entry thing is just in case you hit the button by mistake, but never go out to the car and get in.. keeps you from leaving it unlocked in that case.
