The keyhole on the Mondeo is located on the door handle. The small cover next to the handle can be pried open to reveal the keyhole inside. Insert the mechanical key, push it in, then remove the lock cover in the direction of the arrow to expose the keyhole. First, press the key against the hole on the door, then grip the white cover and slide it out in the direction of the arrow. After that, you will see a lock cylinder - insert the key and turn it to open. As Changan Ford's flagship model with high technological content and excellent manufacturing craftsmanship, the Mondeo is equipped with multiple innovative technologies. The Mondeo measures 4860mm in length, 1854mm in width, and 1480mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2850mm.

As a long-term owner of a Ford Mondeo, I can share my experience. The keyhole is located on the steering column, near the bottom right of the steering wheel, easily visible once you're seated in the driver's seat, primarily used for starting the car. There's also one on the door handle for manual unlocking. My 2015 model has a very noticeable keyhole, but newer Mondeo models might come with a keyless entry system, eliminating the physical keyhole. If you can't find it, check the door handle for a small indentation or button as an alternative. The keyhole is conveniently positioned to avoid accidental contact, but it tends to collect dust, so regular cleaning is recommended to prevent sticking. Older Mondeo models have an exposed keyhole, making it easy to locate, and your fingers naturally find it while driving. If you're still confused, consult the manual or ask a repair shop, and remember safety first—don't get distracted searching for it while driving.

I'm quite interested in the evolution of automotive technology, and even the keyhole design of the Mondeo has changed. In early models from the 1990s, the keyholes were clearly visible on the lower right side of the steering column and on the door handles, purely mechanical. Now, after 2015, many have upgraded to keyless start, with buttons replacing the physical holes, so the location is gone. If you're driving an older Mondeo, look near the steering column; it's usually a small round hole. Newer models might only have a backup hole on the door handle for emergencies when the battery is dead. This change makes using the car more convenient but also tests habits. The location of the keyhole affects ease of use, so I recommend that car owners familiarize themselves with their specific model. If it has a keyless system, pay more attention to the remote control's battery life to avoid emergencies.

If you can't find the keyhole on your Mondeo, don't panic. There's a key insertion hole on the right side of the steering column to start the car, and another one on the door handle for unlocking. Newer models might not have holes anymore, featuring push-button start instead. Keyhole locations are generally easy to find - simple and practical.
