I see you misunderstood the first half of my post, and didn't read the second half at all. I was merely saying that pressing the button takes the car out of run mode. In the second half, I clarified that even when removed from run mode, the wheel won't lock until a door is opened.

I made the mistake of buying an automatic, and every now and then the transmission derps out, so I have to reset it, and I'm too impatient to wait until I stop...
