Hello John,

Thank you for your feedback. We are always looking to improve our customer experience and appreciate any input from our customers.   
The vehicle will not allow the doors to be locked manually if the key fob is in proximity to the interior oscillator in the vehicle. The condition described appears to be normal vehicle operation and not a malfunction.

This behavior is generally understood to be a lockout-prevention safety/convenience feature designed to reduce the likelihood of accidentally locking the smart key inside the vehicle. ^cc
