What to Do When Cadillac Keys Are Locked in the Car?
2 Answers
Several solutions when Cadillac car keys are locked inside: 1. Spare Key: When the primary key is accidentally locked inside the car, try to retrieve the spare key. Therefore, it's advisable not to carry the spare key with you while driving. 2. Using the Weather Stripping as an Entry Point: Use a long, sturdy wire to insert along the gap. If the car is running, insert the wire to reach the window control button and press it to open the window. If the car is turned off, insert the wire to reach the central lock button above. 3. Using the Window as an Entry Point: Clean the window glass, press your palm firmly against the glass and shake it up and down while slowly pulling downward. The glass may gradually lower, creating a gap that allows you to reach the keys or unlock the door with the wire.
My friend had the same issue two weeks ago—he locked his Cadillac keys inside the car and was frantic. Here’s a general guide: First, check the windows; some models allow you to pry a small gap to insert tools. Most Cadillac models have keyless entry, but the system might not detect the key if it’s inside—don’t panic. Quickly locate a spare key; if it’s at home, you can avoid the hassle. If not, call a professional locksmith (costs around 100–200 RMB)—never smash the window yourself, as repairs are costlier. You can also try the mobile app; Cadillac’s OnStar service offers remote unlocking, provided you’re registered. Develop a habit: keep a spare key in your coat pocket or with family to avoid such embarrassments. Safety first—never risk injury or further damage to the car.
