So, if you garage your car, every morning when you go out to the car, it is locked? Do you use the Lexus App and look at status and see that the doors always show 'locked'?

I just realized this auto lock feature today. Went out this morning and when I got home, yes car is in garage, a few minutes later car auto locked. I did look at app. But again my OCD, I had to go to garage and see that the mirrors had folded so I knew 110% car was locked

I'm guessing that your car will also lock when you shift out of park or when it reaches a certain speed? -- I know I set mine off, as I did not care for this.

Whoa whoa! When did this happen?!?! I thought Toyota was never planning on fixing it. Is it just with the 2025 models?

Probably you pressed the unlock button and never opened the door after.
