Default Why does the window lock only lock the rear windows?

Just like the title states. Why? It should lock all the windows in the truck. Now I gotta have my passenger front window retinted because my wife was able to roll down her window because the thing doesnt lock the front windows :doh:

I just had the two passenger side windows and the rear driver's side retinted yesterday. I hit the lock button when I left the dealer just in case. So thanks for the warning. I will make sure to warn any of my passengers this week.

I wish it locked all of them but the drivers switches. I thought the same thing, then my dog rolled down the window all the way and scared me half to death.

Wonder if there's a way to change that. And while I'm there, I wonder if I can install auto switches in the back window switches.

My '09 locks all the windows but mine. I'm always unlocking it for my wife to use the window.

My 09 locked all of them. However my 13 only does the rear windows. I don't know if it would have something to do with the one touch up as my 09 didn't have it but the 13 does? I don't know for sure just the only difference I can come up with.

Looks to be a "feature" beginning in 2011.



NOTE: Hadn't checked the window lock in my 2011 so I consulted the owner's manual. Sure enough ... only the back windows can be locked.
