I agree with the person that suggested that you test it by leaving the
doors unlocked and measuring how much time it takes the doors to lock.
Repost after you have conducted this test. In a way--unless you have left
the keys in the car--this seems like a great feature since all of us on
occassion have forgot to lock the vehicle. Also do a separate test with
the windows down and the keys in the lock mounted on steering wheel--it's
possible the doors won't lock automatically if the keys are in the
steering wheel lock.

 

Tried that- it doesn't happen every time. The times I sat in the driveway
waiting for it, it didn't! I'll try again.

Here is my take on this problem...

The alarm system will remotely lock the doors on the Pilot after 30 seconds
+/- 15 seconds in a couple of instances:

1. If the lights are left, the alarm/keyless entry will turn off the lights
and lock the doors. Note if the lights are left on and the keys are in the
ignition the truck should not lock!!
2. If the truck is locked by the FOB and then unlocked by the FOB and no
door is opened within the above time limit.

My experience with this system is not good. We have a 2003 EX and twice I
have had to rescue the wife for keys locked in the truck, due to the above
conditions. In both cases, the keys were left in the truck and the lights
were on.

I discussed this with my Honda dealer. I wanted to turn this "feature" off,
but it cannot be done. Additionally, I wanted to add an external keypad
(similar to my 95 Explorer), but none was available.

If I had bought the lower end model (LX) and had the dealer install the
optional alarm, the autolock could be disabled. But on the factory
installed alarm, it cannot (how about that!!!)

Anyway, you might try http://www.honda-pilot.org/ for additional
information.
