## Narrative
My car was hit from the back by another vehicle.  After the collision, I parked the vehicle and turned the ignition switch off, before getting out of the vehicle, the doors automatically get locked and the vehicle does not allowed to open the door even with the key card inside.  I had to open the car with the manual handle from the inside.  After I went out of the car, immediately the car again was automatically locked with the key card inside.  I tried to open the car several times, and even with the phone application, however its remains locked.  The car never opened, so I have to use an external hard ket to get access to the inside.  I am very concerned about the lock system of the vehicle because someone can get stuck inside with this system failure and if there is a fire or something, this could be a very serious problem. I have kids and pets and now I don't feel safe driving this vehicle again thinking about this behavior during an accident.
