Oh, *****
So I have a weird issue and it may be an easy fix but when I get out of my car and lock the door then shut it the lock pops back up and is unlocked. Is this normal? I can't imagine it would be. I took a look at everything exterior wise and it looks fine. Any ideas?

......yea thats so you dont lock yourself out. All rx-7s have them. If you want to lock the door shut the door and lock it with the key or get some aftermarket locker thing.

Double Ds for me to share
that is completly normal on a import. when you close the door you need to hold up the handle so that it stays locked. if you don't hold up the handle it will just unlock itself

In Hondas, you have to hold the handle up, THEN press the lock button... Otherwise, you can't press the lock button down...
Regardless, in ALL of the cars I've owned, I've locked the keys in them...
It becomes reflex action to hold the handle and lock, then hold the handle and close... I do it to the work vehicles and they lock by remote control.
