I went to spend the night a my moms house last night as she just got out of the hospital. I put my overnight bag in the trunk and drove over. When I got there the trunk would not open. All 4 doors lock and unlock fine. On the way I made one stop and locked the car up. I have the trunk set so it locks and unlocks with the doors. Its never had a problem before. I have tried a million times with the key but it won't turn or pop open. I called my roadside assistance service and the called a locksmith but he told me he wouldn't be able to get into the trunk without damaging it.

I've read about a cable under the back seat. Is this in all models? How do you get the backseat out? Will this release the trunk? My main keys are in that bag and my work keys. Is there a way to access the trunk inside the car (from behind the rear seat) ? I probably will drop my car off at my mechanic up the road from me in the AM.
