Default All doors not unlocking?

Hello all,

I just joined the Lexus family after owning Hondas all my life.

I upgraded my 2011 Civic Si for a 2014 Lexus IS250 F Sport. The issue I'm having is that all the doors do not unlock when pressing inside the driver side door handle only the driver side door and then I physically press the door unlock button inside on the door panel. However, all the doors unlock when I press the inside of the passenger door handle.

Is there a way for the driver side to do that as well or is it passenger side only? And one last thing that may sound silly, but being that the car is RWD does the break pads fade quicker on the front or the back of the car?

Thank you for the help and I'm super happy I got this Lexus!

You will need to change the door lock setting on the audio display screen or nav screen.

Most brakes system are front bias. The fronts will wear out faster than the rear on any vehicle.

The F Sport with the 4 piston brake calipers on the front will definitely wear the pads way faster than the rear everytime.
