My 2013 Elantra Limited appears to lock all doors when shifting from Park to any other mode. And to unlock all doors when shifting into Park from any other mode. (Or possibly to do this locking and unlocking when passing through Reverse--which is essentially the same.
My 1995 Town and Country, 2008 Elantra, and 2010 VW Eos automatically lock all doors at a vehicle speed from 12mph to 16 mph. None of them automatically unlocks doors. I have yet to find any mention of this topic in the 2013 Elantra's owner's manual. Have I stated correctly the way the Elantra is supposed to function, or am I way off base on this? -------------------- A proud member of the club.

The auto lock feature usually triggers when you click unlock on the remote and then don't open the car door. The locks will auto re-lock after about 30-45 seconds.
The auto unlock / lock feature is something that the dealer can set. I am not sure how... in my 2009, the doors would unlock after I pulled the key out of the ignition. This was a feature that had to be turned on by the dealer. For my 2013, the locks will engage when shifted out of park, and then disengage when the car shifted into park. -------------------- Owner of a 2013 Elantra GLS and proud to be a member of this club.
