You have to go to your settings and set that feature. Setting on you steering wheel.

please read the owner's manual!
 






On another note, use the child lock also, so they can't open the doors from the inside.

did what the manual says... ignition on, unlock button 3 times, ignition off unlock button 3 times, ignition off, unlock and lock button... manual says i should hear the horn honk once to enter programming mode and twice if autolock was successfully turned on... never heard a single sound
 






The autolock seems to engage over 5-10 MPH IIRC

Have you driven the vehicle to see it the doors 'Autolock'?

Autolock (If Equipped)
Autolock locks all the doors when:
• All doors are closed.
• The ignition is on.
• You shift into any gear putting your
vehicle in motion.
Your vehicle attains a speed greater
than 4 mph (7 km/h).

yup my mileage is 979 already... i am expecting the locks to engage everytime i hit 7kph or more... i live in the Philippines and locked doors are a necessity... tried what the manual says but still no luck
 






Funky electronics...time to disconnect the negative terminal on the battery and try again.

Curious is your sport considered an export model?

not sure but it is made in the USA... but sold under Ford Philippines... unlike the other ford models here which are assembled in Thailand

i am sure it is US made.. that's what the dealer told me... they are the only true american made since the others are assembled in thailand
 






They still build them for export markets however.
 






by the way tried what the manual says with engine on and engine off
 






Reason [MENTION=264213]jmr061[/MENTION] is asking, builds for units to be delivered to countries outside the USA have different functionality and requirements.

but its impossible for a 2016 car model not to have this feature.. by the way 2016 sport cost approximately 62,500 dollars over here.. so i assume they have autolocks

We are simply trying to assist you. I have the ability to determine what market it was built for, what programming was installed in the modules etc. I need the VIN for that though. I can't help if you don't want to supply the VIN. That is your choice.

I think all other options have been exhausted at this point. You say you have it enabled etc.

You need to contact your dealer at this point.
