Open Trunk without power?

kayess · 09-13-2011, 10:34 AM

Does anyone know how to open the trunk without any electrical power? I did a search on the owners manual and the forums but couldn't come up with any answer. If anyone knows please let me know, it would help me ALOT!

There is a manual trunk release in the car somewhere, but I can't remember where for the moment. Let me look around, I might be able to find you an answer.

SECONDARY REAR HATCH RELEASE
The secondary rear hatch release mechanism
allows opening the rear hatch in the event of
discharged battery or emergency.
The release handle is located under the cargo
room floor. To open the rear hatch from the
passenger compartment, perform the following
procedure.
1. Remove the cargo floor mat.
2. Find the rear hatch release handle *1 as
shown in the illustration.
3. Free the release handle that is fixed with
velcro.
4. Firmly pull the release handle until the rear
hatch releases.

You may have ressurected a thread from september of last year. In fact I think kayess had her car flooded since then.
