    are there any settings? or is there a mod that will autolock the car as you walk away from it? (or within a few seconds?) or do you ALWAYS have to touch the little lock botton or use the lock feature on the fob?

    No setting for autolock. There is an after market option. I think it is from coastal tech. A search of the forum should turn up quite a bit of information.

    Some lawyer in Toyota obviously decided that that feature is too much for lawsuit-happy Americans... :angry:

    From Tokai-Rika, the company that manufactured the Smart-Kay in Toyota Prius...

    "We developed the Smart Entry system, which automatically unlocks the front door as you approach with the Smart key and locks the door after you leave and also the push start system that starts the engine without inserting the key by only pushing the start switch."
