    It does it every time I hand was my truck(with the fob in my pocket). When I get to the drivers door, it will lock and unlock on its own. Is the water making enough contact on the hands free gizmos???? Anybody else have this issue?

    I have found it very easy to bump my buttons and lock/unlock while working in the truck, or in the yard doing work.

    I have a peasant SR5, but the fiancés CRV does this. The water spray is enough to cause the car to lock/unlock when you spray around the handle. Always makes me chuckle. I say normal.

    Happens to me. Just leave the FOB in the house until you're done.

    Yes, my truck does it too. I just thought it was trying to be cute like the dog getting a bath...

    Yeah I just put the key FOB on a bench in the garage while washing - far enough away so the signal doesn't allow unlocking.
