SOURCE: keys lock in trunk alarm will not allow trunk switch to lock

The solution is to pull out the back seat to get into the trunk. There are two bolts holding the bottom part of back seat (bolts located between bottom and top sections). Then pull out bottom section of back seat and you see the hinge for the top section, remove the bolts and then you can lift up and access the trunk. It's not that hard.

SOURCE: The keys are locked in the trunk. a lock smith

Remove the back seat. Back seat has two parts, bottom section that you sit on and back section. In between the bottom and back sections there are two bolts, feel for them and then remove. Once removed the bottom section can be pulled out. Then you can see the hinge at the bottom of the back section, remove bolts at the bottom and then you can lift up and access the trunk.

2007 volvo v50 key stuck in ignition vehicle totally shut down

It is best to call a locksmith, unless you know how to take apart the ignition tumbler and put the assemly locks in the correct order. It sounds like the key tumbler hold in broke and all the tumblers are loose and causing the key to be stuck. If you want to hurry the job for the locksmith and save money, buy the key tumbler assembly for your vehicle for the locksmith to install. Otherwise he will have to make the trip to buy the assembly, which in turn costs you more money. Mechanic shops can replace key tumblers too but when it is stuck in the column, it takes a lot of effort to remove if they are unskilled.

Ignition lock cylinder removal

Talking about pulling the air bag,removing the clock spring,
special tools for the lock plate,then it gets easy.

Disconnect the batt. for like 20 min to kill the air bag,remove the bag ,then the wheel,(with the puller you rented),the tool to remove the clip for the lock plate come next( also rented from Auto Zone or such like)
The tumbler is held in with a pin that unscrews ,then the cyl. just slides out.

Ford edge doors locked with dead battery

You can try the Police who have a Slim-Jim and once in a while they will help on this. Your Ignition key should unlock the door.

Most Autoclubs or Car Insurances have a Locksmith benefit. Locksmiths have Master keys.

Dealers can look up your Vin#. It should be on your Insurance form or on the ID plate below the Drivers windshield. They can cut a new key. If you have a key for the Ignition, you only need a Tumbler key for the doorlock. Electronic keys can cost $100+ a Tumbler key only $10.

My ignition is stuck in locked position and it ownt turn over

It sounds like the classic "switch needs replacing". You only need the tumbler replaced. Before installing the new tumbler take it and your door key to your local locksmith and they can key the new tumbler to work with the old key. This saves you from have to have two different keys.

You basically have to take the whole steering wheel apart to get to the tumbler. You should go buy a manual for your car and it will show details.
