Default Help!

I'm feeling pretty bad. I disconnected the battery for the winter and closed the hood. I went out to charge the battery and the car is locked up tight. What is the best way to remedy this situation>

Use your metal key in the hatch at the back, then pull the wire to open the passenger door.

Hello,

You have to outsmart the car.

Use the key to get in the back of the car and work your way forward.
