Autolock When Driving - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Bonburner · 07-05-2012, 04:25 AM

Just curious if anybody knows a means of getting the car to auto-lock when the vehicle is moving.
I prefer having the car doors lock when I drive, it isn't something big but I just like to know it's locked.

Really?
I feel like every toyota and lexus car in my family has this set up.

UK spec cars have this enabled as standard.
I'd imagine it'd be a simple mod for your dealer.

Yeah, Toyota has this feature on all their vehicles.....in automatics! I've always owned a stick, and I haven't been able to find how to do this. Usually you can program it to auto lock in different ways. For example, when the car is put into drive it will auto lock. I would also like to know if this car has the option.

Thanks for the clarification!
I'd like the autolock to trigger at 2nd! :]

My 2007 Si had this, at 9 mph.

Picked up my Automatic FR-S (US) yesterday, and it does not auto-lock.

My 2004 corolla had the autolock feature.. and the doors would automatically unlock when I opened the door when parked.

The FRS does not autolock and does not automatically open when parked. I'm still getting used to manually locking and unlocking the doors. I wish there was a way to enable the automaticness of the doors.

Well I hope I can bug some service dept people into researching this option

jesseps · 07-05-2012, 11:28 AM

So I am not alone. I keep forgetting that it doesn't autolock.

Lil Abner · 07-05-2012, 12:26 PM

Now that you brought it up, I'm looking into it.
