There is no auto-lock button enabled in the car or on my remote, and due to a previously replaced battery, the key fob no longer functions properlyâI must manually insert the key into the ignition. This is extremely concerning because the vehicle should not automatically lock while it is running and in park. Had I not had a spare key available, I would have been completely locked
