What is the emergency trunk opening method for Volvo?
2 Answers
If opening from the inside, locate the emergency pull handle next to the right taillight assembly in the trunk, then pull it to open the trunk. If opening from the outside, with the vehicle unlocked, find a black button positioned directly above the center of the license plate, pressing it will open the trunk.
Hey, Volvo owners, take note—the emergency trunk release method is actually quite simple. For most models like the XC60 or S90, there's a Volvo logo on the trunk lid with a small cover underneath. Pry it open, and you'll see a keyhole. Just insert your mechanical key and gently turn it to manually unlock the trunk. If that doesn’t work, there might be a manual pull cord or button on the inner wall of the trunk—you’ll need to climb through the rear seats from inside the car to access it. I once had to do this when my key fob battery died, and thankfully, it worked without a hitch. It’s wise to keep a spare key in your bag and regularly check the remote battery to avoid panic in emergencies. Safe driving is always the top priority.
