Disabling Keyless Entry

[Edgger]

Is there a way to disable the keyless entry feature that unlocks the doors of a 2016 Sport Edge when you approach the car?  The reason why I ask is that I’m having a problem with unintentionally unlocking my Edge.  I have two cars - my Edge and another brand. Both are parked side by side in the driveway.  Sometimes when my wife and I go out in the other car, her Edge key fob in her purse will unlock the Edge when she passes by it.  We don’t know this happens.  We have been broken into at night because the Edge doors were unlocked.  

 

If there is a way to disable this feature does that mean the auto hatch opening by using your foot, will disable too?

 

Thanks.

The Edge's door will not unlock unless you put you hand inside the door handle opening (while the fob is close). If it is still unlocking, it might be that the fobs buttons are being pressed accidentally, or there is an issue with the Edge's locks.

 

Edit: A feature worth looking into is the Auto Relock, but it does not come by default. You'll need to enable it with ForScan. What it will do is auto re-lock the doors if they were unlocked with a fob but a door was not opened within 45 seconds.

Thank you.  Just tested it and you are right - need to put hand on the handle.  We probably forgot to lock the doors.  I’ll look into that auto relock feature.
