Pilot locks by itself
Our Pilot locks itself after sitting in the drive for a while. I know about
the thing where if you unlock with the remote, it will relock again. Not that. When we pull into the drive and get out without locking, and then come out in several hours to go out again, it's locked. Is there something we don't know? Or is there a problem with the car? Love our Pilot! -- Bob Burns Mill Hall PA |
Re: Pilot locks by itself
The Pilot is fairly new, so I've never seen it with the problem, but you
could have a bad driver's door lock actuator. If it "senses" that the door has been locked it will signal all of the other door to lock too. (assuming that Honda hasn't changed that way it works).

Re: Pilot locks by itself
Are you sure someone with a control in their pocket isn't bumping a button.
I have that problem as my office is over the driveway and once in a while I find a power sliding door open...

Re: Pilot locks by itself
Don't think so. Our remotes take a little work to operate, and we're aware
of that and being careful. It goes in for it's first 7500 mile service soon, so I'll ask the dealer to look at it. -- Bob Burns Mill Hall PA "BillW" <TheDuck@pond.net> wrote in message news:XxXkb.2821$P%1.2469435@newssvr28.news.prodigy .com... > Are you sure someone with a control in their pocket isn't bumping a button. > I have that problem as my office is over the driveway and once in a while I > find a power sliding door open... > > > "Bob Burns" <xxxx@xxxx.net> wrote in message > news:LtQkb.4327$Uz6.395@newsread1.news.atl.earthli nk.net... > > Our Pilot locks itself after sitting in the drive for a while.

Or is there a problem with the car? I have an after market remote starter, that locks/unlocks the doors as well. It has a setting that allows it to lock the doors of the vehicle after a certain amount of time elapses. You may have the same option. I would suggest getting out of the vehicle, and waiting to see how long it takes for the doors to lock, to verify that it is doing it on it's own. -- Brian www.accesswave.ca/~orion |

Repost after you have conducted this test. In a way--unless you have left the keys in the car--this seems like a great feature since all of us on occassion have forgot to lock the vehicle. Also do a separate test with the windows down and the keys in the lock mounted on steering wheel--it's possible the doors won't lock automatically if the keys are in the steering wheel lock. |
