What owners reported

NHTSA groups complaints coarsely, so that means the same area of the vehicle, not necessarily the same fault.
Keys were inside car with only an infant inside and the doors were locked with no other key fob anywhere nearby. There must have been an issue with the car’s safety system to unlock the car in this situation. There was no 3 beeps that would unlock the car. Car was parked in Walmart parking lot in the heat.
