For me, I think the problem is when I get out of the car, I walk right towards my home (I park on a city street). The car door probably doesn't fully close until I'm 5ft away or so, thus it doesn't lock.
How do you wind up 5 feet from the car by the time the door closes? Do you leap away from it? What's your door closing "technique"? It sounds like you walk away and then somehow close the door.
Mine works no matter which direction I walk away. But I do close it first, and then walk away.
