Currently, when the vehicle is locked by the auto-lock feature, if any door other than the driver’s door is unlocked manually before the driver’s door is unlocked, the auto-unlock operation is cancelled. The new logic keeps the auto-unlock operation from being cancelled regardless of which door is opened first.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2019/MC-10169824-0001.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2019/MC-10169824-9999.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10169824","components":[{"id":"electrical","name":"Electrical system","parent":null},{"id":"latches-locks","name":"Latches and locks","parent":null}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"SUBARU","model":"ASCENT","year_from":2019,"year_to":2019,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2019_subaru_ascent"]},{"make":"SUBARU","model":"FORESTER","year_from":2019,"year_to":2020,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2019_subaru_forester","2020_subaru_forester"]},{"make":"SUBARU","model":"LEGACY","year_from":2018,"year_to":2019,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2018_subaru_legacy","2019_subaru_legacy"]},{"make":"SUBARU","model":"OUTBACK","year_from":2018,"year_to":2019,"match":"exact","vehicle_ids":["2018_subaru_outback","2019_subaru_outback"]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
