My new DS7 doesn't lock itself when I walk away. That's weird. Also, the lights only work if I unlock and then lock the car with the key. Is there a way to fix this?
 
AFAIK, none of the DS cars have the automatic walk-away lock thing.
I think they have. I can confirm that the DS exhibits proximity-based locking and unlocking functionality. Sometimes it works great, sometimes it doesn't. It's kinda hit or miss.

When you approach the car with the key in your possession, it automatically unlocks. However, if you walk away without opening any door, it will lock again after a short period. On the other hand, if you approach, the car unlocks, and then you open and close a door, it will not automatically lock again when you walk away. Hope this helps!
 
it's strange that your DS7 isn't automatically locking and that the lights only work when you use the key. That's not normal for a luxury SUV. Check the car's settings in the infotainment system for auto-lock and lighting options. If those are already on, there's likely a software or keyless entry problem. You'll need to take it to the dealership. They can check for sensor issues or software updates. They'll figure out why it's happening and fix it.
