Default Keyless entry - doesn't work for rear doors

On my LandCruiser 200 Series, if I grab the rear door handles to open the door, the keyless entry automatically unlocks all the doors if the vehicle is locked.

On my 3rd Gen RX450h. nothing happens when I do the same with the rear doors. The vehicle only unlocks when grabbing the front door handles.

Should keyless entry work with the rear door handles?

Some model have the lock/unlock from back-doors. If the door handle has a dimple (like the one on the front door) then you can lock/unlock from it/them.

My RX does not have the dimple on the back-ddor handle.

Thanks for the input, Salim.

No dimple on my rear door handles, so I guess that means no keyless entry capability there.

As Salim has pointed out, 3RX does not have smart key sensors in the back, only 4RX does.
Few smart key implementations are limited to the driver door only.
