My 11 year old granddaughter came with us to an event on Sunday. She then wanted to get something out of the car so I unlocked it with the app on my phone. When she didn't return in about ten minutes I went to check on her. She was inside the car, totally frantic, she couldn't open the door from the inside. She was in the back seat. I had my phone with me in my pocket, opened the back door and the alarm went off! I used my key card to silence the alarm.
Today I tried to reproduce the sequence and was unable to get it to happen, though I am not sure exactly what she did. No, child lock was not active. Has anything like this happened to anyone else.
This event was potentially quite dangerous as it was a warm day and the windows were up.
I realize there are many ways she could have gotten out - emergency handles (front only), unlock button on the screen, put a window down, etc., but in her panic when the door open button didn't work she didn't think of those things. I have since show her these alternatives.
