Auto Locking

I seem to have an issue (or not) with my Auto locking.

In the settings I have turned on "Auto Locking" and it never auto locks i've tested it and nothing. I cant seem to figure this out am I thinking auto locking is for something else but I feel like that option in the cars settings is self explanatory?

Any feedback?

Well, for starters, what do you think Auto Locking is? Now let me tell you what it actually is. It's the automatic locking of all the doors once the car exceeds walking speed. It is not the automatic locking as you walk away from the car with the fob in your pocket. MBs don't have the latter, although I think it's now a feature in the W214 if I'm not mistaken, in conjunction with the digital key. For most other 2019+ models if you forget to lock the car you'll receive a notification through the Mercedes me connect app and can then lock it remotely.

​​​​​​It also could be the auto lock if you accidentally pressed the unlock button on the key fob but didn't open the door for a minute or so. Once any doors are open, vehicle stays unlocked until you lock it.
