May be the fire or electronic short circuit made the auto UNLOCK function failed (whether the car had auto LOCK feature-unknown).
Motto of the day, leave your car door unlock at all time to prevent locking yourselves inside the car when "shit things" happened. Or lock your car at all times to prevent "shit things" from happening. May be an actuary will be able to calculate the odds.
Your own safety, your own decision. No one should decide for you.
I suppose this ban on auto locking is coming from Europe, where the risk of being hijacked is lower.

I remember I read somewhere in the Focus forum in US while searching to find out why Ford Focus in Malaysia do not have speed sensing auto lock function(applicable to external only), the US models have the option for user to program whether to activate the auto lock feature or turn it off.
Your safety, you decide motto.

So all the argument here doesn't apply to me, because it doesnt actually affect me

It doesn't affect you because the bad guys dare not rob you, you look BADDER than them(calf size forearm with tattoos all over resting on the door sills), I guess.

Sometimes even if you keep your valuables like handbag/money bag out of sight, the experienced assailants will still be able to spot them by stalking you before the robbery. The girl friend of a friend was robbed at a traffic light, the robbers just opened the passenger door and grabbed her handbag she kept under the passenger seat and sped off.
Can install OBD chipset under the steering but when kids open it manually you can kick brake to lock it or door open will have double signal for Honda car. Emergency break will auto unlock. Other model I dont know.
Think logically, if u manually lock the door, it would actomatically unlock when u meet accident, mind u if it ever occur that might just save ur live (as every second count during emergency) just practice to lock the door after u get into the car like how u fastern seat belt, no fruss.
Police & Bomba r just giving a safety advise, Cursing Bomba or Police doesn't help isn't it ?
manual car lock will auto unlock during accident? Got such feature? How come auto lock cannot unlock during accident? I don't get the point?
Hi expert, is it true that nowadays new car are not equiped with autolock feature (car lock when step on brake pedal)? was told by car sales person that this is safety regulation.
Lel the salesman bullshit you?
My Iriz bought in 2015 got speed based auto lock. I don't need to press brake. Just drive above 20km/h and it will auto lock.
King Myvi still using brake paddle auta auto lock? Lel.
yes, is our Malaysia regulation. To prevent you locked inside your car in accident event in this most safest country!
Lol... dont simply mislead ppl... only cheapskate manufacturers like toyota honda dont provide auto lock, because they dont want add additional sensor to auto unlock when accident happens...

All Conti and Korean not sure all but at least my 2017 Elantra Sport has it. My sis's Japanese 2019 Mazda3 has it.
Are modern Toyota and Honda the only 2 that cheap out? I was very very surprise to see the City video, I thought autolock is 100% common today, auto unlock on collision is not that expensive to implement, sensors are there for airbag already, just unlock when airbag deploy.
