Using the key: Press the middle button on the car key to open the trunk; 3. Smart sensing: Use the foot-activated sensor switch to open the trunk.

Having driven for many years, I know how crucial it is to be able to open the trunk from the inside, especially in emergencies like when a child accidentally gets trapped. Look inside the trunk—there’s usually a small colored handle or lever, often hidden on the rear trim panel near the door edge. A simple pull can unlock the entire door. It’s designed as a mechanical release for reliability in case of electronic failures. I once helped a friend escape using this feature; it’s effortless to pull but vital to remember its location. Make it a habit to familiarize yourself with it after buying a car. Some vehicles, like SUVs, have more visible glowing indicators for easy spotting in the dark. Regularly maintain and check if it operates smoothly—adding a bit of grease prevents rusting. Overlooked small details can save lives. Avoid tampering with it daily to prevent accidental openings.
