ok, maybe I'm just blind, but...

Is there a manual trunk release inside the car anywhere? Not that I would really ever use it (would use the trunk button on the remote), but seems odd that they wouldn't have one... :scratch:

 

I noticed that too, they have had it in the glove box for ever and this year it seems to be gone

 

That is a big NO.

 

i believe its only on the key fob

 

Yes, I think there is one....you lower the rear seat backs, crawl into the trunk
through the resulting access route, and pull a little toggle thingy, then jump
out through the trunk lid opening....then you put stuff in the trunk and
close the lid....and maybe you can still get back in the car if you didn't lock
the doors!

 

On pages 65 and 66 of the Owner's Manual it has a section that includes the following:

"To open the luggage compartment door (lid) from within the luggage
compartment, pull the illuminated “T” shaped handle and push up on
the trunk lid. The handle is composed of a material that will
glow for hours in darkness following brief exposure to ambient light.
The “T” shaped handle will be located either on the luggage
compartment door (lid) or inside the luggage compartment near the
tail lamps."

Now...I'm not saying it's there because I don't have my car yet, but someone that does might go out and verify if they find it or not...

 

thats inside the trunk and other than that and on the key fob there isnt a trunk release

 

Sorry....I should have read the original post more closely. Thought he was asking about a release inside the trunk...

 

There have been a billion threads, please search next time. Keyfob works when the key is in the ignition.

 

2 words: "Trunk Monkey!"

 

No trunk release drives me insane. If I take that car out, she comes home with something in her trunk. Keeps me inventive popping it from the fob.

My husband said- your'e crazy, all cars have one. I invited him to search for it, and was proven right.

Thats thing #3 that aggravates me(1 and 2 being the air blowing, and passenger side staying locked after you turn it off and open the DD)

 

Only thing that agrivates me about the trunk release on the remote is while walking away from the car and trying to chirp the alarm on hitting the darn thing and having to walk back und latch it.

I STILL have trouble unlocking the passenger door, I try clicking it twice and it won't work, twice really fast does but if you hit it too many times the alarm starts blaring, thats really friggin annoying.

 

My wife found it and says it works. I love this picture. It makes me laugh everytime I think about it.

 

Really, what IS the use of that trunk release handle in the trunk?

 

Most cars have that now, so you can't go locking people inside. Really you’re in the MOB, I'm sure it's easy to disable.

 

You're kidding! I can't lock people in the trunk??? Well there goes all the fun! Time to cancel my order.

 

Man this is an old topic. Search feature must have not been working

 

I can't believe I'll have to pop them to prevent any escape. I gotta dig the hole myself now?? What a letdown.

^_^

 

i cant believe this topic came up AGAIN!

 

It’s not like the good old' days is it? Times are changing. You can always buy a old Cadillac, my friend had one man you could fit like 5 bodies in there. And I know first hand! Seem's I've said to much...
