I have 3 solutions lol

1) Roll down window before exiting
2) Leave door ajar when exiting
3) Turn off car and take keys when exiting

and welcome

weird... xD's aren't equipped with auto locks...

solution 4) keep the valet key on a different key chain, so you can always unlock the car...

I keep my primary key on a key-chain by itself, my valet key on my house/work key-chain, and the extra key hanging in my house... I do it incase I do ever lock my keys in the car... although its never happened to me...

^^^True... but what if he has some aftermarket alarm??? not that it should auto lock witht he car running in park but IDK.

I am about the same, but I have a key, my wife has one, and the valet is at my parents. but I dont have door locks. lol I don't even have handles. so we have one door fob on my key ring and one on my wife's

i always roll the window down when i exit car with it running. just for that reason. You have no idea how many cars with alarms would lock me out with the keys in it when i was doing car stereo work...

my car has autolocked before for some reason while my car was running. luckily i had a crack in the window and one of my smaller friends was able to get his hand down and unlock the window. no aftermarket alarm or anything, and its never happened again after that
