Re: Xc40 broken into without key

Some years ago in Central London a friend of mine was badly beaten outside his flat for the key to his Flying Spur. He would have given it to them except he didn't have it; his driver had taken with him who they hadn't seen.

Re: Xc40 broken into without key

OxfordT, your car will only self lock after a few minutes IF you didn't open any doors after opening. So, if you get out the car and not lock it after a drive it remains Open

Re: Xc40 broken into without key

If you unlock the car without opening the doors it'll relock itself as you describe. Try unlocking and opening the car up. Then see if it locks itself. Mine has never locked itself having been opened

Re: Xc40 broken into without key

Does earlier footage show the Red Alarm light flashing on the dash? If it does then your car security has been compromised. If not you either didn't lock it or for some reason it Failed to lock correctly. The latter is worth testing out a few times to see if you can recreate the issue.

Re: Xc40 broken into without key

OK, in this footage the car was already unlocked and alarm was not set as there is no red flashing light on the dash before or after the Bike Boy. Can't say for sure if the mirrors are in or out, regardless they can be set folded in without being locked. Just looked at my black mirrors from the same...

Also worth considering Toyota/Lexus as you get a 10 year warranty for peace of mind.

Re: Xc40 broken into without key

No, I thought of that! Seems AAOS cars are different. Mine opens everything including mirrors from the Android app, there is no "press the boot button" message in my app after pressing "unlock". Car is fully unlocked.
Was the OP car actually locked properly I wonder.
