So here’s another weirdness I see in my EV6.
there are 3 settings for automatically unlocking the doors when you are done driving:
1. When ’transmission’ is put in P
2. When the ’ignition’ is turned off
3. Off

i set mine to ‘when P is engaged’ but only the front doors ever unlock. when I get out and forget to hit the unlock button on drivers door controls (because, really, why should I have to? It’s a smart car, right?) and then try to get into the rear seat, I have to either reopen the drivers door and hit that unlock all button, or I have to touch the front handle to lock the car and then again to unlock it.

so, two questions:
1. is there an ‘unlock all automatically’ setting that I am just missing?
2. Does everyone one else have to go into slow-motion mode when using the ‘touch to lock’ or ‘touch to unlock’ ? It takes at least a full second or 2 of finger on handle before it reacts… every other car I’ve had for the last 15 years is nearly instant… but not this one, the smartest and most modern 😱😱🙄🙄

thanks for your thoughts

Yeah both of those are annoying issues, especially when having to get kids out of the backseat.

I have mine set to unlock on ‘p’.
What I’ve found is when I park if I just turn the car off then the back doors don’t unlock.
However if I put the car in ‘p’ then turn it off the back doors are unlocked.
Hope this helps

Yes, that‘s a weird little issue, but if you set it to unlock when the ignition is off it does unlock all doors when the ignition is turned off.

The other one is not a problem for me.

maybe the car is smarter than I thought. After reading the last response, I went to the car to make some changes to the setup… and it behaved properly all day today 😳🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️
I changed nothing, but now the back doors unlock when drive is set to P.

DON’T even breath on it then lol!! 😂. I think it’ll stop working again - but otherwise yes the unlock when car is off does work.

right, so I must have breathed on it. I suspect…but don’t have time to do more testing… that it has to do with the last directional ‘gear’ the transmission was in. Going from D to P seems to unlock all. From R to P, unlocks only front. At least that seems to be the case. Will try to test fully in next few days.

My GT unlocks the back doors intermittently. I have it set to unlock when turned off. Glitch? It irritates my wife because it works 9 out of 10 times
