Those combination locks have been around on Ford/Lincoln Mercury cars since the mid-70’s.
Back then they really never worked very well, probably due to people not using them. They were typically equipped on cars that had the deluxe or luxury options installed. I remember seeing them a lot on Lincoln Continentals and Town Cars.

Good Idea, but the technology just did not support it very well making them very un-reliable.
