Where is the trunk button located in the car?
2 Answers
The trunk button is located on the door next to the driver's seat or on the key fob. The methods to open the trunk are: 1. Open the car door, firmly pull up the button below the handle, and then push the trunk upward; 2. Press the one-touch trunk opening button in the middle of the car key and hold it for about three seconds to open the trunk. The reasons why the trunk cannot be closed are: 1. The rear hatch uses overly stiff spring rods in the automatic lift switch; 2. The closing limit rubber block does not match the locking mechanism properly; 3. Fault in the trunk control circuit; 4. Malfunction of the trunk hydraulic support rod.
Having driven for so many years, I've seen various trunk button placements. The most common is on the driver's side door panel, next to the window controls, while some cars integrate it into the panel below the center console. There are also vehicles that position the button under the driver's seat for easy reach. Remote keys usually feature a trunk button—holding it down opens the trunk. Premium models even have buttons on the trunk lid itself, allowing hands-free opening by waving your foot when your hands are full. Designs vary greatly across brands; if you can't locate the button, try the interior release handle or consult the manual—it always works.
