Im unable to open the trunk to my 94 mercury sable..?

Question

i just recently got a 94' mercury sable and the car key wont open the trunk and i dont know how else to get in the trunk, because the backseats dont come down to get through from the inside of the car. any suggestions?

Answer 1

There should be a trunk release button somewhere by the headlight switch and hood release. Ford/Lincoln/Mercury's only come with 2 keys and those work for everything. There are no valet keys.

Answer 2

there should be a pass through, possibly where the armrest is if you can open that, some cars have a trunk release that is reachable from this position pull the release and the trunk should pop open

if that fails, you may want to take it to the dealer and as a precautin have the lock replaced or have them at least find out how to open the trunk

you may also be using the wrong key, most car keys are 3 sets 2 masters (which can open all doors and trunk) and a valet key (which typically cannot open the trunk) check to see which key you have

but if all else fails take it to the dealer
