As always, my wife put her purse with the key in the purse in the front seat of the car while she was putting our (3) old grandchild in the care seat. as soon as my wife closed the back door all the doors locked, possibly our granddaughter hit the lock with her foot. The back doors only have a lock feature but not an unlock feature. My wife had to call the fire department to get the doors open. We live in Florida, if this was summer, there could have been a health risk to our grandchild. (1) why with the keys in the car would it lock (2) why isn't there a way to unlock the doors from the back seat? I went on line and it looks like others have had this same issue.

When the vehicle is connected to a cell phone and reliant on Apple CarPlay for navigation support, the screen will freeze numerous times while in transit. This causes the driver to lose situational awareness. The natural impulse for most drivers is to try to remedy the issue while moving. Once the device is disconnected the application resets and loses the destination. This can happen while driving on a highway at a high rate of speed.
