Yep, Lexus got that one right too.

Not sure if it's a big deal but I've always had aftermarket alarms (Viper) that do this for me. I've never had an issue with it. I've owned many GM vehicles but I can't remember if the newer did this before the alarm was installed??

Either way, it's a simple luxury that should have and could have been easily added to the G, considering it's a 45K car, IMO. However, they are probably holding it for an addition to the 2010 model. Can't add everything the first time, it doesn't bode well for the selling of newer model vehicles.

My Dad's CRV locks at 10-15 mph.
My G doesn't. Didn't really think of it until I saw this thread. No biggie for me.

I've felt conflicted about that as well. I admit it's a pain in the butt locking the door all the time (most of the time I don't even do it), but I can see this from a safety angle too. I guess it annoys me switching between the G and my Accord since it auto locks and unlocks when the ignition turns on and off.

is there any visible wires or buttons, that need to be added? That is my main concern. Don't want any switches that I always have to hit before this feature is activated...

It's in your manual, and has to do with holding the button. I don't remember the exact procedure =[

Doors should unlock when you turn off the motor... I think the the off switch is under "settings" on the screen. You can download the owner's manual in PDF, then it's easy to search it via keywords.

Section 3-6 in your owner's manual.
