My van locked me out today. I got out of the van, left the keys in the ignition to put gas in and I was going to sit in the van because of the cold and wait for the gas to fill up. The door was locked! With the key in the ignition! I did not lock it myself or hit something by mistake. Luckily, my husband came right away as I was only 2 blocks from home. A similar thing had happened before, but I thought maybe I had hit something. I like to warm up my van in the morning and I usually lean over the passenger seat and start it and go back inside. When I came back out one time, I was going to put my purse in the passenger seat and it was locked. Fortunately, the driver door was open. Not sure what this is all about, but I will keep an eye on it.

First the lock on the right sliding side door stopped working a few months ago, now the other one doesn't work! I have to carry a sleeping 35 pound toddler to the van sometimes, and now I have to contort to unlock the door. You never realize how convenient the auto-unlock is until you lose it!
