What to do if the rear door of the Volkswagen Polo does not open?
Years 2009-2017

Answer

The lock is mechanically stuck, so the thing to do is to try to tap the inner panel while someone outside tries to open the car with the remote control. For an emergency, there is an emergency lever on the lock that allows opening, but the plastic panel and the metal one underneath must be removed.
