Stop by the garage for your make of car and ask them where the manual locks are. Every car should have a way to get out of it. They may be in a place that doesn't look like a lock or something. I can't imagine a car manufacturer making a car you can't get out of. What kind or brand of car do you have? I sure don't want one if you can't get out of it. I can't lock my car with the key in the ignition and feel that is a good thing. I also have the automatic locks and electric windows but there is a button to manually unlock the doors from the inside. Glad you had your cell phone with you.

That IS scary, and you've given us a very good idea, to start the engine before shutting the door, especially in the hot months. Auto electronics are wonderful. When they are good, they are very-very good, but when they are bad, they are AWFUL! Glad you had your phone with you.

Chevy is only car I am familiar with that locks the doors. My daughter has one and I am always ready to open the door before it unlocks them. I do not like that feature, but you can manually unlock the doors in her car. I just started carrying a cell phone and your story gives another good reason to have one. Glad you could get help so quickly. Take care.
