All 4 doors unlock by itself
I have seen a weird behavior with my 2012 TL (FWD, Technology)). On multiple occasions, I have seen that all 4 doors will unlock automatically while car I am driving the car. I can hear sound of actuators and then see all 4 doors unlocked. Since all 4 doors are unlocking simultaneously, it seems to be issue with car's ECU.
Also, sometimes I find my car doors unlocked when I leave for work in the morning or at the end of the work day. I use Black button on door handle to lock doors in my car.
This is quite concerning to me. Any ideas?

might be the master switch at the driver's door. I'd check that first.

Some of these functions like auto lock or unlock, seat position, mirror position etc. are optional and can be programmed to your preference. Refer to the owners manual.
On a TL they are specific to what key you are using, driver 1 or driver 2. If you switch keys, the new key will not know what settings were chosen for the previous key.
But as mentioned, you might also have a more fundamental or complex problem.
If you have two different keys, do a bit of experimenting to see if there's any changes when you change keys.

Definitely look into what jim_c is saying, you can change options of how the doors lock or unlock on your MID.
Here is a video demonstration of where to find it on the ILX but it's very similar on the TL.

Heck I just blame my wife when all 4 doors are unlocked. Personally I just learned last summer that you can unlock the doors , roll down all the windows including sun roof by hold down the the unlock button on the remote. Just havent figured out the reverse it with the remote.

I continue to have this issue, where all 4 door locks will open by themselves for no apparent reason. It can happen on any speed, including highway speed or while stopped on a traffic light.
Its spooking me out. Any ideas, what might be happening here? Any ideas?
Thanks!

Sounds like one of your door sensors are malfunctioning or the door lock actuator is out of whack. While sitting in your car, try pushing on the interior of the door to see if you can replicate the issue.
