Just bought an 08 Pilot EX-L, no nav or res. Sales person said the Pilot, like all Honda's, have automatic door locks that will lock after the car gets to a certain speed. My 97 CR-V does this once the car is put into gear, but my fancy new 08 Pilot doesn't. I asked the service manager and he thought it was just a matter of programming the car control unit. When I picked up the Pilot (had side step installed), he said the EX-L's don't have this function, it can't be programmed in. Is this true??? Oddly, he said some of the Pilot control units can do this, but not our EX-L. Which to me means I bought the top of the line Pilot and it has less functionality than some of the other Pilot trim levels!?!? I'm hoping someone can confirm the Pilot does or doesn't have the autolock function and if so, can direct me where to get this resolved. Thanks, Jamboaz |

I have a 2008 pilot ex-l and have had this problem occur a couple of times. I open the door locks with the remote entry. I open a door and then close it. As soon as the door closes the doors automatically lock. Usually I have the keys in my pocket or I have the spare close by but one time it happened when I opened the doors, threw my keys on the front seat, secured my child into the rear car seat, closed the rear passenger door and it locked on me as soon as the door closed. I called the cops to open it and needless to say I now carry a spare hide a key under the car. Why does this happen and can I disable it?
