Actualy. When you shift out of 1st gear, all the doors lock and you have to shift out of drive or unlock manualy.

I hate the Stupid Child Saftey Locks on our '02 Yukon XL.
They annoy me.
They should have made a disabling feature.
Are you talking about the feature on the back door that you have to open the doors from the outside? There is usually a switch in the door, when you open up the door you should see it. There wasn't one on the Yukons?

Actually those can be modified from what I understand if you program it. Mine on my Intrepid lock after you drive about 20mph (which I believe is standard on Chrysler products). The Child Safety Lock reference that TechmanBD was referring to are those idiotic switches on the back seat of cars that became common back in the 80-90s that disable the inside door handle that if the kid manages to lift the lock, they won't be able to open the door. The problem with those things is if you get your fingers shut in the door, your up a creek if no one else is around or your dad is too irritated to listen to you yelling at him at the top of your lungs to stop yanking at the inside handle and go to the exterior handle as yanks harder and harder as it shoves the door harder on your finger since he can't understand that the concept of if at first it doesn't work yank harder is counter productive.[:@] The thing I can't understand is why they make locking systems like that on cars for the backseats and make front doors that are supposed to be locked, unlock when you pull the handle, because we all know that children NEVER ride in the front seats whether or not its the law, and this was done before the days of dual sided airbags to justify that stand point. Thank God that I was wearing a seatbelt when I was 6 or else I might not be here today. All the cars we had before hand would never unlock unless you physically unlocked it yourself. Okay, rant over![sm=rant.gif]
