Why can the doors of the Magotan still be opened after locking?
2 Answers
Magotan doors can still be opened after locking to ensure that in the event of an accident where occupants inside the vehicle become unconscious and unable to open the doors for rescue, external rescuers can open the doors in the shortest possible time to promptly rescue the occupants. The automatic locking function is designed for theft prevention, allowing the doors to lock quickly after driving to prevent door-pulling robberies during traffic jams or at red lights, providing a certain level of security. Taking the Magotan 2020 280TSI DSG Comfort model as an example: it is a mid-size car with a length, width, and height of 4865mm, 1832mm, and 1471mm respectively, a wheelbase of 2871mm, equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine, a maximum power of 110kw, and matched with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I've been driving a Magotan for several years and have encountered situations where the doors could still be opened after locking the car, which was quite alarming at first. Usually, it's because dust or dirt gets stuck in the door lock mechanism, preventing it from fully locking, or the remote key battery is low, causing weak signals and no response from the car. Checking if the doors are properly closed is crucial, as sometimes the doors are not fully shut, making the locking ineffective. Additionally, if the child safety lock isn't set correctly, the rear doors can still be opened from the inside, which has happened when taking kids out. The solution is to first replace the key battery with a new one, make sure all doors are firmly closed, and try locking again. If the issue persists, it might be a fault in the central control system or a broken lock block, requiring immediate inspection at a professional repair shop. Safety comes first—don't underestimate this problem, as a malfunctioning anti-theft system at night can be dangerous. Regular cleaning of the door lock slots and maintenance can help reduce such issues.
