Hey guys,

I just bought a 2008 honda civic si. My question is, is it normal that when I turn off my car that only the driver's door unlocks...not the other doors? It is a little inconvenient that when I have passengers in the car that I have to unlock the rest of the doors...

Is this normal? or maybe a glitch that needs to get fixed?


Thanks in advance!

Most civis unlock both sides w/ power locks Not sure on the newer one like you have BUT i agree the other night pissed me off when i got stuck inside lol

 

I am sure that in my 09 SI when I stop and turn off the car just the drivers side door unlocks. I seem to remember that I have to hit the unlock for anyone else that is in my car with me at the time of cutting the car off.

I will make sure this afternoon.

 

I have an 06 SI Coupe none of my doors unlock when i shut the car off. so I guess every car is dif.

 

HAHAHA yea it cracks me up on new peeps...but it gets old after a while. . .


sweet, i just wanted to make sure. I'm thinkin bout callin up the service center at honda and asking them...

 

sorry to rant, but are people really getting this lazy nowadays that they complain about having to push a button to unlock a door? lol

 

lol that and they can't find the btton to unlock it..lol

 

It's normal. Same behavior on several late model vehicles.

 

Thank you

 

I finally remembered to check the unlocking of the door when the car is turned off. With my 09 SI all 4 doors will unlock as long as no one touches the locks. If someone unlocks the passengers door then only that door will unlock.

So, short answer all doors unlock after the car is turned off.
