How to Open the Door When the Changan Oushang X5 Key is Left Inside the Car?
2 Answers
If the car key is locked inside the car, you can open the door by finding the spare key, using a mobile phone to remotely unlock the car, or contacting rescue personnel to unlock it. 1. Find the spare key: Generally, when purchasing a new car, the manufacturer provides a spare key. You can carry the mechanical key with you. When the car key is locked inside the car, you can use the mechanical key to open the door. Since the mechanical key can only open the door but cannot start the vehicle, even if it is lost, there is no need to worry about the car being stolen. Do not carry the entire spare key with you, as losing it could pose a risk of car theft. 2. Use a mobile phone to remotely unlock the car: If the car is equipped with a mobile phone remote control function, you can use your phone to remotely unlock the car. If the car does not have this feature by default, check if a smart box has been installed. Some car control products allow you to unlock the car remotely via a mobile phone. 3. Contact a locksmith company: Wait for rescue personnel to unlock the car. You will need to provide relevant documents, including your ID card and vehicle registration certificate, to prove that the car belongs to you.
I remember last time my Changan Oshan X5 key was also locked in the car, and I was really anxious in the supermarket parking lot. My first reaction was to call my wife to bring the spare key, and it took half an hour to resolve. Later, I found out that the Oshan APP has a remote unlocking function—after downloading and binding the car, you can unlock it with your phone, which is quite convenient. I suggest you check if you have this APP installed on your phone. If it’s not set up, contact the 4S store to help configure it. It’s a good habit not to leave the key on the seat casually; buying a keychain to hang on yourself is safer—prevention is always better than panicking in the moment. If you don’t have a spare key, don’t force open the window or door to avoid spending more on repairs for damages.
