The cat MAY not even have had anything to do with it. If it is a late-model GM pickup or SUV, sometimes the doors will lock with no apparent reason.

There was recently a thread about this on another message board. Supposedly, if you bump the lock switch just so while getting out, and certain other things freak out the security system, the doors will lock something like 10 seconds later.

They explained the exact sequence of events there, but I still say the #$&% doors sometimes lock with no apparent reason. That has happened twice with our 2002 Yukon.

Stupid, stupid, stupid excess of electronics on these modern vehicles SUCKS!

There is a simple solution... Take the keys with you. In this day and age I am baffled as to why anyone, under any circumstances, would exit their vehicle without the keys in hand.

BTW, my 2003 Chevy has crank windows and manual locks. It's not that you can't get trucks without all the fancy electronics, it's that you don't want to. Blame the electronics when it's your fault for buying the fancy-schmancy jacked-up 4x4 dually... Makes lots of sense to me.

Amen, Brother. One of the reasons I keep throwing money at my '88 Dakota and my '89 Chevy.

Fawteen: I'd go further back than that, how about a nice 66 IH pickup, model 1200 with 264 engine and 4 speed. Would dearly love to find one.
