2025 Window Lock - Not locking windows

[squirlz]

I noticed that the window lock on my 2025 XLT does not actually lock the windows. Also confirmed on a 2025 Lariat, both Hybrid AWD. I assume prior year models has a functioning window lock?

The button lights up when pressed, but the windows still operate from the drivers switch and all of the other independent switches.

Anyone else have this issue?

Now we’re starting to hear complaints about the 25’s. It’ll never end!

The window lock locks out only the rear window switches from operating. The drivers and passenger switches are still operable.

Locking the Rear Window Controls

WARNING: When children and pets are in the rear seat, use the power window lockout button to prevent accidental operation of the power windows.

Press the control to lock or unlock the rear window controls. It illuminates when you lock the rear window controls.

Thank you, I missed that in the manual.

honest question - did you read the manual?

A good chunk of it, and after the lock was not working I read the window section. There is big bold text on LOCKING THE REAR WINDOW CONTROLS.

With the button lit, you should be able to operate each window from the driver's master control switch BUT other occupants can't.

full disclosure - I never read the 23 Tremor owners manual and don’t plan on reading the 25 hybrids.

So no judgment regardless.

There is a reason they include a manual......READ.IT!

You will still be judged. It's certainly your choice, but you can't avoid the judgement - you don't get to tell me what to do!

Who needs to read the manual when we have sites like this.

Sorry. I don't have 40 hours to sit down and read a 500 plus page manual. HOWEVER, whenever I have a question I WILL search for the answer.

False alarm. Take it back!

The confusion comes in because you said this: " but the windows still operate from the drivers switch and all of the other independent switches."
