Door Locks

Unattended Children and Pets:
Leaving a child or an animal 
unattended in a parked vehicle is 
dangerous. In hot weather, 
temperatures inside a vehicle can 
become high enough to cause brain 
damage or even death. Always take all 
children and animals with you or 
leave a responsible person with them.

Keys and Children:
Leaving children in a vehicle with the 
ignition key is dangerous. This could 
result in someone being badly injured 
or even killed. They could play with 
power windows or other controls, or 
even make the vehicle move. Don’t 
leave the keys in your vehicle with 
children.

Unlocked Doors:
Unlocked doors in a moving vehicle 
are dangerous. Passengers can fall 
out if a door is accidentally opened 
and can more easily be thrown out in 
an accident. So keep all doors locked 
when driving.

NOTE

Always remove the key from the 
ignition switch, close all windows, and 
lock all doors when leaving your 
vehicle unattended. This discourages 
intruders and thieves.
