What to Do When the Car Key is Locked Inside the Volkswagen Tiguan L?
2 Answers
Most cars come with two keys for the owner, one for regular use and the other as a spare. When hiring a locksmith, always choose a qualified and reputable company. Before unlocking, the owner needs to present relevant documents, such as the vehicle registration and ID card. The 4S store offers after-sales rescue services. Simply call them and wait for the rescue team to arrive. Remove the window seal, then use a wire or thin string to lower it through the window gap near the door key position. Loop it around the door latch and pull upwards to open the door.
I've also encountered the situation where the keys were locked in the car before. Once I forgot to take out the keys when locking my Tiguan L during a drive. My suggestion is not to panic first, check if there's a spare key nearby, like one kept at home or ask a friend to bring it over. If not, try contacting Volkswagen's 4S dealership or a local locksmith company. They can solve it professionally without damaging the car door or electronic systems. The Tiguan L might have the WeConnect APP feature, which allows remote unlocking via smartphone after installation—pretty convenient. In the future, develop a good habit of checking your pockets before locking the car or use a keychain to reduce negligence. Also, when waiting by the roadside in such situations, ensure your safety and avoid hasty actions that could lead to more trouble. There's always a solution.
