2012 - Delayed Door Lock feature.

On my brand new 2012 1LT Equinox, I have checked "Delayed Door Lock" feature in the Power Door Locks section of the configuration menu. However, the doors do not automatically lock after I turn off and exit the vehicle and shut the doors. Is there a quick explanation for this anomaly, or should I just ask the dealer?

jhboone,
Congratulations on your new Equinox!
As far as the delayed locking: are you pressing the lock button on your key fob or on the inside controls? We just want to make sure we're understanding the situation correctly!

Thanks,

Thanks - John
