Call a Nissan dealer to ask, as some models can fold down but others cannot.

Locksmith, and AAA auto service might be needed to open it.

Several internet links, including FIXYA, suggest a knob or handle on some Nissan models on the passenger seat that may be used to fold the seat down, but not all Nissan cars have that feature, and some models may even require a key to be inserted, which would mean paying a dealer for a replacement key if they can make one for you.

SOURCE: How do I fold by back seat down?

If you will open your trunk, you will see a round handle lever you pull on to release the seat. There should be one on each side. They are located near the top of your trunk.

SOURCE: my rear folding seats wont fold down

When you open the trunk, there should be a knob at the top right of the opening. Pull that and it will unlock the locking mechanism for the rear seats. I just recently figured that one out myself!

How can I put down my back seat in 2004 Nissan sentra

This will depend on which trim level your Sentra has. Only some models had fold down seats. Look in the Trunk. If yours has drop seats there will be two release pulls in there. They will either be a large push button or a pull lever/tag with the picture of a seat on it. They will be positioned with one in the top left corner of the seat back and one on the top right corner, usually high up.
Another quick way to check is to sit in the rear of the vehicle and look at the seat backs. Drop seats are usually split into a 2 seat back and a single seat back, (60/40 split), so there will be visible stitch lines you can slide your hand between where the joint is.

Remove rear seat

I have an 87 4dr Sentra w/o folding back seats. I need to get to the upper strut bolts and they are NOT accessible from trunk. All above wrong. I have pulled up on front edge of seat with full leg and pry bar and nothing moved. I pushed back and up on seat but no luck. I pulled away carpet and there are no screws. Chilton manual says there are bolts on front but they don't exist. I looked under car and in trunk but no luck.

Also, please remove blueextc322 answer because it's for an ENGINE COMPARTMENT problem, not seats.

The trunk of my 2005 Nissan sentra is locked and can't open even with key

may be manual release behind or under back seat and if not you may need to remove back seat and panal which should let you into trunk. once in there should be a release on the trunk inside to open it. most new cars have them to prevent someone from getting locked in trunk. after opened you may want to have lock system replaced or it could simply just need oiled....... hope this helps and good luck

How do i fold down my rear seats in my 2005 nissan sentra?

There should be a little knob inside the trunk that you have to pull. I think its on the driver's side. Once you release that knob you can lift up the backseat recline thing on the back driver's side seat and it folds down. Hope this helps.

Problem is with 2007 nissan sentra. The automatic key will not open the trunk and now the lever that opens the trunk from under the driver's seat is also broken

this is strange. is there access to the trunk from the rear seat? if not the rear seat will need to be removed to get to the trunk and then there will be a pull ring that releases the trunk latch. it is a safety requirement on all cars to let someone get out of the trunk

My trunk won't open

should be a button or lever or pull tab somewhere along the top of your back seats that allow them to fold down..... and your trunk should have an emergency release lever inside the trunk

90 Nissan - should I just destroy the trunk lock to replace it? Can't find any way to get the seat down to get into the trunk. thank you

There should be a switch somewhere along the top of the back seats that allow them to fold down....
It may be hidden or recessed into the top of the seat, or just beside the seat somewhere along the top
