Default 2019 GS Door Lock

Went from 15 to 19 and noticed something the 15 did not have. After it sits a few days the auto unlock will not work with the door. I have to unlock with the key fob and then it works till it sets a few days. My 15 Z51 never did this and it is not a problem I just find it different. Found no reference in the Owners Manual.Mean 19 GS sorry for the typo.

My '19 doesn't do that no matter how long it's been sitting.

How's the car's battery?

Nor does my '18. Sounds like something is amiss. Good luck tracking it down, if you choose to bother trying.

My '17 doesn't do that either. Could it be the fob battery? Car battery? Does it do it with both fobs (assuming you have the original 2)?

My 19 doesn’t do that but mine is programmed to be unlocked unless I push the button on the fob.

Does not sound like it is operating normally. Best of luck figuring this out.
