I will agree with a couple of the previous statements. Most cars do not auto-lock - you have to do it yourself. The TCH does, and it's the first car I ever had that does. Mine is set by default to lock as soon as I take it out of Park and to unlock again as soon as I put it in Park. It was driving me nuts at first, but I'm starting to get used to it. I'm still not sure I really like it.
