No need to repost the question in another forum (which is against forum rules BTW).

It sounds like you need to spend some QT with your truck and determine how/when the door is becoming unlocked and then determine the cause. Phantom unlocking is not a common problem and since you have aftermarket equipment, the only solution is to actually sit down with your truck and observe. Maybe it is a weak door lock actuator not fully seating the lock (doubtful). More likely, the aftermarket alarm is unlocking the door for some reason.


Will the door stay locked if you disconnect the alarm?

so when the door appears to come back unlocked is it after you manually lock it or do you lock it with the keypad buttons

I have no strong recommendation on that, but sure there are lot of members who have huge information about lock system.
Moreover, you need to check its manual as well as wiring system.
