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 trunk release handle
located on the latch inside the trunk. This handle
will glow following exposure to light. Pull the release
handle to open the trunk from the inside.
