Part: Checks and maintenance
Operation: How to open the trunk hatch locked in the Volkswagen Jetta?

In the Volkswagen Jetta, it is possible for the trunk to get stuck, for example due to a problem with the control button or the lock actuator. In this case, we can still perform an emergency opening by following the simple procedure shown in this tutorial. First, we open the rear doors, then we lower the backrest of the seat by using the indicated lever. Next, we go inside the trunk, locate the lock mechanism, and manually activate it. The trunk will then be free to be opened and potentially repaired.
