Why is the trunk of your Dacia Sandero locked?

We will now see one after the other the concerns that can make you want to open the safe of your Dacia Sandero from the inside.

Lock connection wires cut off that blocks your Dacia Sandero trunk

First justification for a locked trunk on your car. It is possible that the wires or the wiring harness of the trunk lock may have been cut by force or because of shocks. This trouble motives the outside trunk release handle to not respond and may also trigger concerns with your rear lights which may be connected to the same wiring harness. If you have these two concerns and your bulbs are not burnt out (please have a look at our guideline on changing the bulbs of the rear lights on Dacia Sandero if you don’t know how to test their condition, there is a good chance that the tailgate of your Dacia Sandero is blocked caused by an electrical trouble.

The second trouble that may cause you to search for how to open the trunk of your Dacia Sandero from the inside, is that it is the lock of the trunk of your Dacia Sandero that is at the beginning of your trouble. After a while, it may become blocked or internal mechanisms may break. In such a case, the action of the exterior trunk handle no longer activates the system. You may still perceive the sound of activation, but the mechanism will not spin.

Something’s jammed in the lock

Finally, a last situation, despite the fact that the origin of the trouble is usually already established. It is possible that you have something (a bag for example, a jacket, leaves…) stuck in the lock of your trunk and that this foreign body keeps it in the closed position.

How to open trunk Dacia Sandero from the inside?

After reviewing the various motives why you might want to open the trunk of your Dacia Sandero from the inside, we will show you how to do it in practice.

You may not be aware of it, but there is an internal handle on your trunk, which is there for security. This handle is hidden and the majority of us are not even conscious of its existence. On the other hand, it is the handle that will allow you to open the trunk of your Dacia Sandero from the passenger compartment. To find this “handle” you’ll have to get in the back seat (don’t hesitate to fold it down for more space), and, at the trunk lock of your Dacia Sandero (center of the tailgate), you’ll have to remove a plastic cover to see the entire lock appear. Once this has been achieved, you should find a sort of lever that once activated will allow you to open the tailgate of your Dacia Sandero from the inside. Be careful though, on many models if this lever remains in the open position you will not be able to lock your trunk when locking your car with the central locking system. So remember to put it back in position once you close your trunk.
