Default Automatic Door Lock

Pg 2-12 of the manual:

"If someone needs to get out while the vehicle is running
or not in PARK (P), have the person use the power door
unlock switch. When the door is closed again, the doors
will lock either when your foot is removed from the
brake or the vehicle speed becomes faster than
8 mph (13 km/h)."

Is there anyway to disable the 'Automatic Door Lock' feature?

Pretty sure you can do it thru the DIC under "options" button. It is one of the selections you can choose like MPH/KM etc.

NO! NO! NO! OP is not talking about the AUTOLOCK option when the engine is off and no one's in the car.

OP is talking about the autolocking the car does when the engine is running and the car is in motion. There's no way to disable that autolocking feature.

Like many cars, the door must be unlocked manually in order to get out as long as the engine is running.
