What to Do When the Car Key Is Locked Inside the Vehicle

[Mike]

When the car key is locked inside the vehicle, the owner can use a spare key, call the 4S shop for assistance, or contact a qualified and professional locksmith to unlock the car. The owner can also take self-help measures, such as using tape to pull the car window open forcibly; using a sharp object to remove the door seal and inserting a wire through the gap to press the unlock button. Since the electronic key inside the car is still within the sensing range of the vehicle system, the owner can try to directly pull the door open to enter the car. If the owner's car model is equipped with a sensor-activated trunk, the trunk can be opened directly without pressing the corresponding button on the key or inside the car as long as the key is within the sensing range. The owner can try to open the trunk to enter the car. If the owner's car model has a corresponding APP unlocking function, the car door can be unlocked through a bound and associated mobile application. Maintenance methods for car keys include: not placing them with metal objects frequently; keeping a spare key; preventing smart keys from falling or being bumped; avoiding exposing smart keys to high temperatures or liquids; and not placing keys together with electronic devices.
