question = ok so my trunk opened and wouldnt close, so I put the lock
engaged, which wont allow me to access it with the pop trunk button, but
only the key, however my key doesnt fit in the trunk slot. the key
fits in every slot other than the trunk, basically im locked out of my
trunk. any ideas what could be the problem with this?






JK:
For the key not fitting, the cylinder is probably broken inside. If it was turned a little bit, that could
have bound up the latch not allowing it to close. Now that it is closed, but you have no way to open
it, you will need to get into the truck from the back seat. If you have the rear seats that have small
straps on the seatback, you can lower the seatback  to crawl into the trunk and release the latch. If
your seatback is not the type that folds down, you will need to remove the seat cushion, then the
seat back to get into the truck. If you would like, i could help you through that procedure, step by
step for a small tip/donation.
