In my car (MB) it doesn’t. I thought it was a deliberate safety feature instead of a “glitch”.

OP didn't lose her key. OP had both the original (locked in the car) and the spare.

If this is not a defect, what’s it trying to protect or when is it ever a good idea?

But how do you reboot this system?

The physical key hidden inside the spare fob can be used to unlock the door. Good thinking Mazda.


Its a federal law, all cars have it not just Mazda


But... I’m assuming OP didn’t have the fob with her and it was locked in the car. Because couldn’t she have just unlocked the car by hitting the button on the fob?

Right. One fob was inside the locked car. The second fob wouldn’t unlock the car (but the physical key thing hidden in the second fob unlocks the car).

The car does not know if you’re in it or not, so it can be locked while running. Ever sat in a parking lot with the car running and locked the doors?


I don’t think it can be locked. DH and I often sit in the car with the baby while the other runs inside a dry cleaner or to grab something in a gas station, and we noted that we can’t lock it.

I had my 2019 Mazda CX-5 idling for a long time Sunday while I shoveled and it did not lock me out. You’re really out of luck if you don’t have the second fob handy.


Can't open doors even with the second fob. I haven't tried the hidden physical key though.
