    Mazda CX-5: Can the door locking system be upgraded?

    Mazda Mazda Advice Mazda CX-5 Mazda CX-5 Advice Mazda CX-5 2012 Hyundai Hyundai Advice Hyundai IX35 Hyundai IX35 Advice Hyundai IX35 2012 Hyundai IX35 2010

    I inquired via my local dealer about upgrading the "Door Locking System" on my 2012 Mazda CX-5, so that my doors all lock once I drive off. I was advised that this feature was not available for my CX-5 Grand Tourer SUV. I had this feature on my Hyundai IX35 and was happy to have it, with the security of mind that it gave my family and me. Given that my boot door locks once I'm mobile, presumably by a "computer action", I believe that an adjustment should be able to be made to the program that controls all the door locks to lock as was the IX35's did. Can you advise me if this feature is now available to be upgraded on my 2012 model?

    While I imagine that it's possible to modify the electronics to do what you want, I doubt it's as simple as you seem to think. To do it now on a 2012 isn't something I imagine Mazda would be interested in. Perhaps you could take it to an auto electrician and see if they could do it for you.
