Remote Trunk Release
To open the trunk from inside the vehicle, press
the remote trunk release button located in the
glovebox.
The remote trunk release will only work when
either the ignition is off or in ACC, the parking
brake is engaged, or the vehicle speed is less than
2 mph (3 km/h).
Emergency Trunk Release Handle
Notice:Do not use the emergency trunk
release handle as a tie-down or anchor point
when securing items in the trunk as it
could damage the handle. The emergency
trunk release handle is only intended to aid a
person trapped in a latched trunk, enabling
them to open the trunk from the inside.
There is a glow-in-the-dark emergency trunk
release handle located inside the trunk on
the driver’s side. This handle will glow following
exposure to light. If someone is locked in the trunk,
they can pull the release handle and push the
trunk lid open from the inside to open the trunk.

damage to important parts of your vehicle in an
accident, hills, tall buildings, tunnels, weather or
wireless phone network congestion.
Your Responsibility
You may need to increase the volume of your
radio to hear the OnStar®advisor. If the light next
