You're bumping the manual door lock on the driver's door when you open the door. That is why it is locking the driver's door and not the other three. I guarantee this is 100% the cause of what you were stating.

Gotta rehash these old door locking threads now and again. Keep ‘em fresh.

That way - just in case the search function fails for someone - they'll see in the 1st page of recent threads - 1 to 3 threads on exactly the topic they were about to start a new thread on.
And hopefully read more than just the initial post, and not just comment "me too!"
At least read the 1st page of posts.

But then there are the people who use the search, bump an old topic, and simply state that they've had the same problem. I get the impression they don't read anything beyond the first post.

Never have so many in an era of information being so easily available, seem to be so reluctant to barely search it out to use it.
Too busy seeing what great advice influencers have on diet, exercise, and medical topics.

Or the ones that quote a particular post, but don't bother reading it, looking at the pictures or watch the video.
I did just try the new Pic and pleading (that they go out and look at the door lever) on the latest entry (I think it was the most recent anyways, It is easy to lose track...)
I haven't heard anything back yet but am on standby, just in case.

Oh boy
I would, but my computer's in the maverick with the keys, and, well . . .

funny. Gotta love it. I can appreciate a good sense of humor.
I think your sentiment is spot on, but your root cause is a bit off the mark, at least as far as this forum goes. Your second sentence seems to be implicating some younger, TikTok-addicted group - but it isn't generally Gen Z Maverick owners who are starting new threads every day like "LOOKING FOR TAILGATE LETTERS" and "DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY EXPERIENCE WITH MUD FLAPS."
"Google-fu" is apparently a generational skill set, and it never ceases to amaze me that people who can master starting a new forum thread don't seem to be able to leverage the world wide web for basic information requests.

But will the mystery of the Mav "automatically" locked me out ever be resolved...
I might have missed that episode of the X Files...
At 14 pages, this thread and a large number of others comprise the "Never Ending Story" that should have been resolved with a single sentence:
To prevent being locked out of the vehicle, ensure the manual lock lever adjacent to the door handle is not pressed into the locked position as you exit the vehicle...
