This article explains how to open the boot in an emergency if the lock is faulty and does not open from the outside. For this procedure, you will need a tool such as a flathead screwdriver or a thin object.

To open the boot, first, fold down the rear seats using the appropriate lever as shown in the video. After folding down the seats, go to the boot and pry on the lock as demonstrated in the video; the boot will then be open.

If there are issues with the lock mechanism, you can lubricate it with silicone grease after cleaning it.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
