    1) can't open hatch with car running.
    2) driver side door unlock sensor only unlocks driver side door (not all doors) the hatch and passenger door unlock sensors open all doors.

    is there a way to fix these?


    thanks

    1) The door locks on the drivers and front passengers armrests should work.

    2) "CHANGING THE DOORS TO BE UNLOCKED
    Each time you push the lock button together with the panic button on the smart key for about 5 seconds with the hybrid system off, the setting for door unlocking will change as follows:

    1. Driver’s door unlocking mode: If you perform smart unlocking operation on the driver’s door, it will unlock. Performing unlocking operation on the front passenger’s door or back door will unlock all the doors. When the system switches to this mode, one beep sounds inside the vehicle and two beeps sound three times.

    2. All doors unlocking mode: Performing smart unlocking operation on either front door or back door will unlock all the doors. When the system switches to this mode, one beep sounds inside the vehicle and two beeps sound twice.

    3. Single door unlocking mode: The driver’s door or back door on which you perform smart unlocking operation will unlock. However, performing unlocking operation on the front passenger’s door will unlock all the doors. When the system switches to this mode, one beep sounds inside the vehicle" Page 32 in the 2007 manual

    It is a constant source of entrainment, discovering what your car can do. 15 months and still finding tricks!

    Had no idea about the locking settings. Very helpful.
