Whatever led to you getting locked out of a trunk, yours or someone else's, is your secret to keep, but should you find yourself in a similar situation in the future, here's how to make sure you get out of the trunk's enclosed environment, unscathed.
First things first, always bear in mind that prevention is better than any cure, therefore, putting yourself out of situations where you may possibly end up in the trunk is better than any technique to get out of it. There are several scenarios that may lead to you getting thrown into someone's or your trunk without a single warning. For example, your closest friends may want to push you into a trunk as a joke, albeit a harmful one, or you may be fixing or cleaning your trunk when you suddenly slide in and end up getting locked out. There are so many incidents that can lead to one getting trapped in the trunk, and while the thought of it may seem hilarious, it can end violently. Many accidents have occurred due to pranks and carelessness, and it is important that you don't fall victim to it.
Of course, people aren't the only ones that can get locked out of a trunk. After a shopping spree, you may, out of habit, deposit all your belongings into your trunk. There's nothing wrong with this, trunks are, after all, made for storing heavy and bulky objects that won't normally fit in seats or could damage the seats due to their texture, design, or weight. However, when you least expect it, your groceries or shopped goods could get locked in the trunk without warning especially if it turns out your lock is broken from within.
One of the most common complaints many motorists report to their trusty locksmith is that they can't get their belongings outside of their trunk. No matter how hard they try to key their trunk locks, and no matter how forceful they try to pry their trunks open, some trunk locks are simply stubborn. Fortunately, this is a scenario that is easy to get out of. When your trunk lock key renders itself to be useless, it's time you pull out the key that will never fail you: your trusty car locksmith's phone number.
Getting locked out of a trunk, whether it's your trunk or the trunk of someone else's car, never leaves you with happy memories. A trunk is not only cold and compact, it is also dark, and needless to say, dirty. All these qualities don't really make the trunk a place where you could stretch your feet, sit back, and relax.
Make it a point that you or your belongings should never get locked out of a trunk ever again! To make sure that your trunk reopens everytime, always make sure your car's trunk lock is fully-functional. Over time, excessive exposure to the elements can make trunk locks stubborn. With the help of a professional locksmith, you can say goodbye to trunk locks that don't open and say hello to better functioning locks.
