3 Doors lock...safety feature?

[Ragnar]

Noticed that when entering the car while the drivers door is unlocked the other 3 have locked evidently on exiting,thinking this may be a safety feature to keep unwanted individuals from jumping in while I’m getting in the drivers door, wifes getting irritated finding the passenger side door locked.... am I correct?
Is there a way to have all doors unlocked until the cars in motion?

try hitting unlock twice... but there's a setting in the car that unlocks all doors. Don't know off the top of my head right now but it's in the menu somewhere.

Was the driver door locked too? There is a setting to choose between driver door and all doors with one touch. You can hit the button twice to unlock all. The reason is as you say, for safety.

Also there are setting for locking and unlocking when you shift to park or into gear. There is a way to get out of the car and the other doors will not unlock.

There is a condition when you shut the car off the other doors do not unlock. I thought it was on the shift by wire when you don't hit the Park button manually but I'm not sure. Check when you shift to park that all dorrs unlock when you stop.

This is a common safety feature in the car industry, the cool thing about the genesis is you can over ride it (in the dash menu). I wish this were true on my last car, and my other current car my wife drives.
