Default Unlocking doors

My 2014 CT 200h has auto locks as to when I touch the door handle, it unlocks the doors. However, I can no longer do that. I think it may have something to do with the settings but I am not sure how to fix that. Does anyone of you know how to fix this?

Try using the passenger side door handle to open the locked car.
If it works and unlocks all four doors then it is the sensor in the driver's door.
If it doesn't work and you have tried both key fobs with new batteries you
may have to get to the shop. It is possible to deliberately defeat the Easy
Access for those with Radio Frequency wave sensitivity such as having an
embedded Pacemaker but you must get pretty deep into the menus.
Unlikely you inadvertently switched it off.

So my car had been in the body shop for 2 months due to an accident I had and when I got it back I was no longer able to unlock my car that way. I really hope is not a sensor.

Do you have navigation? Setup, Vehicle, vehicle customization, door lock settings, auto unlock by driver door on from off

I think you want to go back to the body shop; they should have a workmanship warranty.

I do not have navigation system. My car is just the most basic but I love it either way

I think that will probably be my best bet just in case it's a sensor. Thank you.

In that case you may need to visit a Lexus dealer. A technician should be able to hookup techstream to the obd2 and enable the feature you want. In the past this was something that could be done complimentary so I would just ask that if they try to charge you. GL
