Unlocking car with remote key fob?

2016 RDX Advanced

Is there any way to unlock the doors with a dead key fob? There is a key hidden within the fob, but I can’t think of a traditional door lock on the car. Everything is working fine right now... but it would be a good thing to know before it’s needed.

any ideas?

thanks!

Like you said, there is a special key in the fob. That key should open the door.

There is a key slot on the driver's door. If the fob is dead, you are supposed to be able to start the car by holding the fob against the press to start button. Should be in the manual.
