The following advice is not a joke. I am very serious:

Place a towel on a spot over the lock catch. Now, with the ''ball'' of your hand (face of your hand just above the wrist), _bang_ as hard as you can without denting the metal. Do this about three times, quick and hard as possible (Bang! Bang! Bang!). Then try opening the hatch. This usually works very well. And it also works on stuck hoods. If it doesn't work, try it again a few times. It is now Winter and a ''Summer Bang'' will obviously work much easier. (Good luck)

SOURCE: handle on rear hatch door broke off.how can i open hatch door until i can get a new handle?

you don't. take it into a Hyndai Dealership and have the handle repaired/replaced. The rear hatch panel/cover has to be removed (from inside the vehicle) to access the hatch latch and open the door.. from that point the handle can be replaced/repaired.

I need to fix by ail lights but cannot open rear hatch. How can I access this frm inside

You can't. You have to get the hatch open. Pull the top trim off the hatch. Remove two screws , one on each side. Pull the bottom panel out and reach down and grab the rod or arm to open the hatch. Then you can access the screws to remove the rear lens. Fix the hatch since it is open.

2005 GMC BACK HATCH WON'T OPEN

It sounds like the lock actuator has failed or has a poor connection which won't allow the latch to release. What you will need to do is remove the inside rear hatch panel to access the lock actuator. Once you get to the latch use a flat screwdriver to release the latch being careful not to damage the glass.

My rear hatch light indicates that the hatch is open which it is closed tight. Because of this my interior lights stay on and my remote start won't work. How can I fix this? My jeep is the 2009...

The switch on the latch is more then likely stuck. If you can see it spray it with some electrical cleaner and open and shut the hatch a few times.
