Where is the trunk switch of the new Regal?
2 Answers
The new Regal has four trunk opening switches, which are: 1. On the left front door, look up from the bottom, there is a trunk opening button on the interior panel. 2. The central door lock on the left front door is also the trunk switch. 3. Pull down the decorative panel behind the center armrest of the rear seat, there is an emergency exit handle inside, and pulling it hard can also open the trunk. 4. Press and hold the trunk unlock button on the key, and the trunk will automatically open after a few seconds. Precautions are as follows: 1. Make sure that the latch is properly engaged after closing the trunk lid. Even if the door lock is locked but not properly engaged, it may cause the trunk to suddenly open, which is a potential safety hazard during driving. 2. Do not drive with the trunk lid ajar or open, otherwise exhaust gas may enter the interior of the car, posing a risk of poisoning.
I've been driving a Buick for several years, and the new Regal really has multiple trunk release options. The most commonly used one is near the driver's seat - there's a button with a trunk symbol on the door handle, just press it to open. If you've just parked and want to get something, it's more convenient to press the button next to the Buick emblem under the trunk lid. The remote key fob also has a dedicated trunk release button - hold it for two seconds and the trunk pops open. I've tried the top trim with the sensor feature - just kick under the trunk while holding packages and it opens automatically. If these switches occasionally malfunction, it might be due to a dead battery or blown fuse. You can always use the mechanical key to open the trunk lock as an emergency solution.
