What to Do When Buick Keys Are Locked in the Trunk?
2 Answers
Here are three methods to unlock when the keys are locked inside: 1. Generally, one or two spare keys are provided upon purchasing the car. If conditions permit, retrieving the spare key is the most convenient and cost-effective solution. 2. You can also call 114 to obtain the contact information of a locksmith company (114 provides locksmith companies registered with the public security department). Similar to home security doors, car doors also have specialized locksmith services. By providing the owner's ID and proof of vehicle ownership, professional unlocking services can be arranged. 3. If the car door is not yet closed, you can access the keys in the trunk by folding down the rear seats.
It's really frustrating when you accidentally lock your keys in the trunk. I had this happen before with my Buick GL8 during a business trip when I was in a hurry to get my luggage out. My first reaction was to stay calm and recall if there was a spare key hidden in the car or kept by a friend. If not, I would directly contact the 4S dealership or a lockout service—Buick's after-sales service usually offers on-site assistance with quick response times and reasonable fees. Check if the rear seats can be folded down to access the trunk, like the design in Buick's Regal, but avoid forcing it to prevent damaging the seat leather. Prevention is simple: keep a spare key in your wallet or phone case, and make it a habit to check your pockets before locking the car to ensure the key is with you. Such oversights are common, but don’t let them delay your plans—address them promptly.
