A vehicle keypad lock control system includes a computer programmed to determine whether the keypad master code should be deactivated based at least on data received by or stored on the computer. The computer deactivates the keypad master code in response to a determination that the keypad master code should be deactivated. The computer may actuate the power lock to an unlocked condition in response to receiving keypad data including the keypad master code while the keypad master code is activated. The decision to deactivate the keypad master code can be based on the location of the vehicle, the distance driven by the vehicle or the mode of the vehicle. The vehicle location can be received from a GPS sensor or navigation device. Distance information can be taken from the odometer. The identification of the mode of the vehicle can be taken from an input to a user device sent to the vehicle computer via a wired or wireless communication. The user device can be a remote device from the vehicle or an in-vehicle or on-board user interface. The keypad master code can be deleted when deactivated.
