Call AAA towing services and tell them your in trouble and your keys are locked in the car, some guy will come and use his "tools" to unlock your car. costed my friend 20 bucks

I did once, at a CL/TL meet!

Called up Acura Roadside Assistance, they were there within 30 minutes. :thumbsup:

Yea i locked mine in my trunk too. I got out of the car and closed the door, didnt lock it, opened the trunk and set my keys down and closed the trunk. I didn't realize the doors would lock themselves.

i locked mine in the trunk too but i locked the runk from the inside as well and i was in san jose visiting my parents and the other key was over 100 miles away

i had to call the locksmith to come break into the car and then break into the lock for the trunk to get the trunk open

this was the most expensive unlocking i have ever paid for, it cost me about 120 since it was after hours and he was on call :(

but its a good story to tell peps :D

Only once in my previous CL. Luckily I was at home and had my spare key on hand.

liloj 06-10-2004 12:14 AM

never have YET

JLai 06-10-2004 12:17 AM

No.

I don't see how you could do that. The only time I've ever locked my keys in my car was in my old car and I was talking to my girlfriend on my cell, and some girl started stripping right next to my car, then I got out of my car and was too distracted by the tittage that I forgot to pull my keys out of the ignition, but I did every thing else I usually did... one of which was pressing the lock button. Fortunately the CL won't let your car lock if the keys are in the ignition. :D

Go get a coat hanger and and something plastic to wedge the top of the door open a bit. then straighten the hanger and use the hook end to lift the unlock toggle lever. It can be done in about a minute.

1st time-locked them in my car while the car was running an hour away from home GF's fault (older car)

2nd time-Went fishing started to rain didn't want to get the car wet so took off my wet jacket and tossed it in my trunk anlong with the keys.

3rd time-left the keys on my seat....but I was able to fish it out with a coat hanger through the cracked sunroof.

Last night was my forth time...locked both my reg and spare. I sometimes leave my keys in the ignition on purpose and if I'm in a hurry and forget that i left them there I grab the spare.

MYcarmensita 06-10-2004 10:59 AM
