What to Do When the Car is Running but the Doors are Locked?

[DeLena]

The issue of the car running but the doors being locked might be due to a problem with the vehicle's computer settings, which can be resolved by resetting them. Some car models come equipped with an anti-theft feature set by the manufacturer. When the car is started, if the doors are closed within 5 to 10 minutes, they will automatically lock. In such cases, you can contact a locksmith or use the car's spare key to unlock the doors. Another feature found in cars is the automatic locking function, which is mostly speed-sensitive. This electronic device automatically locks the doors when the car reaches a certain speed to prevent accidental opening while driving. Besides the speed-sensitive auto-lock, there is another method where the door lock button is automatically pressed when the car is shifted into D gear, preventing accidental door opening. This locking method is more common in American car models.
