Preventing Inadvertent Locking Of Passive Entry Key
Fob In Vehicle
To minimize the possibility of unintentionally locking a
Passive Entry key fob inside your vehicle, the Passive Entry
system is equipped with an automatic door unlock feature,
which will function if the ignition is OFF. If one of the vehicle doors is open, and the door panel
switch is used to lock the vehicle, once all open doors have
been closed, the vehicle checks the inside and outside of
the vehicle for any valid Passive Entry key fob. If one of the
vehicle’s Passive Entry key fob is detected inside the
vehicle, and no other valid Passive Entry key fob are
detected outside the vehicle, the Passive Entry System
automatically unlocks all vehicle doors and chirps the horn
three times (on the third attempt, ALL doors will lock, and
the Passive Entry key fob can be locked in the vehicle).

fob within 5 ft (1.5 m) of the liftgate, pull the electronic
