The refusal to lock was probably that you'd not fully switched off the engine. I've had this on my Qashqai. The fuel-saving system that automatically turns off the engine when you're stopped and out-of-gear can be confusing. This behaviour often happens when parking but it seems you still need to press the stop-start button to "completely" turn it off in order to lock the car.

This is the first car I've owned with "modern" driver aids and it is true that they are somewhat temperamental. For example, the auto full-beam headlights get very confused in fog (which can be dangerous!), whilst I often get a warning noise when approaching sharp bends at a perfectly safe speed.
