  1. How to prevent 2024 XLT Lux Eco from autolocking when keys left in accessory position but not running?

    Sorry, not sure I understand this. Using the emergency key (no electronics) I store in a magnetic case underneath to open the driver side door causes the horn to immediately start honking. I can stop it by pressing the unlock button on the fob once I get in. I'm really not worried about this as...
  2. Doors lock me out if I leave the keys in the ignition

    Thanks for that update. The behavior seems somewhat inconsistent. Sometimes when I get back to the car, all doors are locked and sometimes not. My wife is always in the passenger seat listening to the music and can unlock it so no biggy (and yes, she's 100% sure she's not locking it accidentally...
  3. Doors lock me out if I leave the keys in the ignition

    Thanks. If all of your steps fail, you could always remove the driver side door. :crackup: On a more serious note, I posted this on another thread: Latest update. I received FasterKeys Emergency Lockout Key and tried it. It does unlock the driver side door, but when I use it, the horn starts...
  4. How to prevent 2024 XLT Lux Eco from autolocking when keys left in accessory position but not running?

    Latest update. I received FasterKeys Emergency Lockout Key and tried it. It does unlock the driver side door, but when I use it, the horn starts honking. I can stop the honking by pressing the unlock button on the key fob. Curious why this is happening, but I don't have a major problem with this...
  5. How to prevent 2024 XLT Lux Eco from autolocking when keys left in accessory position but not running?

    Just tested and the passenger lock and unlock (switch and manual lever) work normally. Wish I understood the behavior of all these settings better. Really I just want the damn thing to just not lock on its own. Is that too much to ask?
  6. How to prevent 2024 XLT Lux Eco from autolocking when keys left in accessory position but not running?

    Thanks for this. I actually tried a similar test with the same results and the doors didn't lock. It seems to somehow be related to having someone in the car, which is good (if that person is capable of unlocking the doors). I subsequently set cluster menu Lock setting: ā€˜Switches Enabled’ to...
  7. Doors lock me out if I leave the keys in the ignition

    BTW/ the lock setting I unenabled is ā€˜Switches Enabled’, which according to what I’ve read controls whether someone can reach inside to unlock a door. Don’t see how that would relate to auto lock behavior, but this could be a Ford programming issue. Maybe someone who’s locked themselves out...
  8. Doors lock me out if I leave the keys in the ignition

    Thanks. Auto Unlock is already available in the cluster menu. Perhaps this additionally enables the an auto lock menu setting. I changed one other lock setting on the menu the other day. It didn’t seem to be associated with auto locking but I thought I’d unenable it anyway. Yesterday for the...
  9. Doors lock me out if I leave the keys in the ignition

    Thanks for confirming. This would be easy to do getting out to scrape ice off the window while the car is running for defrost. You would typically not have a door or window open in that scenario. There should be an option to totally disable all autolock functionality. I’ve never had this...
  10. How to prevent 2024 XLT Lux Eco from autolocking when keys left in accessory position but not running?

    Yikes!! Not sure where you are but you’re excused from testing duty. Coast of Maine here. In the mid-60s. Hardly ever gets up to 80. My last Tacoma’s A/C died and never bothered to fix it. My wife turns on her heated seat in the summer.
  11. Doors lock me out if I leave the keys in the ignition

    This is exactly the scenario I’m most worried about and why I will be hiding a spare key which can unlock but not start truck. IMHO needs to address this ASAP.
  12. How to prevent 2024 XLT Lux Eco from autolocking when keys left in accessory position but not running?

    As indicated, I don't drive enough for FordPass to stay enabled. I spent 2 hours on the phone with a FordPass rep trying to reconnect my Maverick without success. She eventually said that given I wasn't doing any highway driving my truck would usually be in battery saver mode and FordConnect...
  13. How to prevent 2024 XLT Lux Eco from autolocking when keys left in accessory position but not running?

    Thanks. This is in no way an answer to my question, though I suppose you have indirectly confirmed this is not just happening in my truck. Hopefully ForScan will have a setting to eliminate this foolish default setting. I’ll also call Ford support and see if I can get through to someone helpful.

    I replied on other threads but it was recommended a start a new one, so here it is... I recently purchased a 2024 Maverick XLT with the luxury package. So far (I've only driven a couple of hundred miles) I'm very happy with it, except for one thing: When I do errands, my disabled wife stays in...
