The driver and front passenger doors also come with an easy-to-reach lock/unlock switch on the armrest for manual control.

For enhanced security, the door lock system is integrated with an anti-theft mechanism, including a vehicle immobilizer that prevents the engine from starting without the correct key fob. The system also supports selective unlocking, allowing the driver to unlock only the driver's door with a single press of the fob button, and all doors with a second press.

Overall, the door lock system in the Acura MDX Sport Hybrid 2020 SUV combines modern technology with practical features to provide a secure and user-friendly experience for all occupants.
