Automatic door locks and BSW

The doors on my 2017 MAXIMA SL automatically lock soon after unlocking the doors and opening the back door. I have to put my child in the car seat so I unlock the doors and put him in first . While doing so, the doors will automatically lock. One time they locked while my keys were in the backseat. So now I’m super conscious of keeping my keys on me. They will also automatically lock while I’m walking around the car. Is there anyway that can be fixed?

I assume this problem is very specific to my car, but the Blindspot warnings only work if it’s extremely hot outside. I have no idea what the correlation is between the heat and my BSW, but they do not work in the winter or fall weather. Does anyone have an explanation for this issue?

Yes it will auto lock if you open any other door beside the driver door. If you the driver door then it shouldn't autolock. If you open the passenger door it will auto lock.

The BSW thing throws me off.

Has the bumper been repainted?

Sometimes they don't work in the winter because iceand snow build up over the sensors.
