I know it’s a little thing, but was washing my truck the other day and every time i sprayed near the front door handle (passenger and driver) the locks would engage/disengage. the key was in my pocket. It was tripping the locks a lot, until I put my keys in the garage. Seems a bit touchy.

I noticed this the other night when I was washing mine. Talk about annoying.

I've experienced this across manufacturers. Very common behavior for keyless entry as the water is a conductor to the signal.

This is a new one to me. Never happens in my CTS-V so I was caught off guard.
