Driver's door electronic key pad problem

My kids have informed me that the key pad on the truck will "work" with out actually using the pass code. They can hit one particular button 5 times and the door auto-magically unlocks. Is this a new feature? How do I fix this or is it always been this way and teenagers just stress tested the lock combos?

Thanks.

Never heard of it, but there are some button combos that do certain things. Have you actually verified their claim? Got a video?

Yes, its been verified. It's "fun" to use the different code vs. the real one.

That's what I'm thinking, maybe try changing it to something you want and see if that does away with the current setting.

Sounds like the kids may have accidentally programmed the personal, secondary code as those 5 same digits. It's easy enough to change it.
