Remote Trunk Release
See Instrument Panel Overview on page 138 or
Driver's Storage Compartment on page 133.
The remote trunk release works when the ignition
is either off or in ACC, or the vehicle speed is
less than 2 mph (3 km/h).
To open the trunk from
inside the vehicle, press
the remote trunk
release button located
inside the driver's
storage compartment
located on the lower left
side of the instrument
panel.
Emergency Trunk Release Handle
Notice: Do not use the emergency trunk
release handle as a tie-down or anchor point
when securing items in the trunk as it
could damage the handle. The emergency
trunk release handle is only intended to aid a
person trapped in a latched trunk, enabling
them to open the trunk from the inside.
There is a glow-in-the-dark emergency trunk
release handle located on the inside of the trunk lid
of your vehicle. This handle will glow following
exposure to light. Pull the release handle and push
the trunk lid open from the inside to open the trunk.
