I’ve never had a vehicle before that has the door code to unlock or lock the car. And after a few months with it I still have yet to encounter a situation where I’ve wanted or needed to use it. Curious to

When I left the keys in the house and need to grab something out of it. When I don't want to take my keys with me, leave them in the console. When I have to run in somewhere and want to leave the truck running with the kids inside.

Interesting. So how do you lock it with the key inside? The app?

If you hit the last two buttons (7-8 and 9-0) at the same time it locks the vehicle. Which you should use because thieves can get your RF code when you lock your car with remote.
Also when using the code to get in if you hit the last number in the code twice it unlocks all doors instead of just the drivers door.

^^Mostly this.

Occasionally when I need to lock the keys inside (beach, waterpark, dropping the truck for someone else....). And the kids use it alot to open the truck to get something out of it.

I actually hardly ever use the fob. I either use the door code or the touch lock on the handle. I usually only use the fob to remote start, because the app takes too long. Not really concerned about RF cloning, almost all car theft is an opportunity crime, and people stealing stuff out of your car look for unlocked cars or just smash and grab.

Never. It was used when I bought it. I have no idea what the code is. No idea how to reset the code. I just use the key fob.

All the time.

Cell phone and wallet in front pants pockets and don't want a key in there as well. Leave key in ignition and press last 2 to lock.

One of my favorite features.
