Trunk won’t open when button is pressed and manually unlocking the trunk with the key doesn’t do anything. How do I open my trunk?

Locking mechanism may be stuck or trunk lid may be out of adjustment. Have someone sit on the trunk lid and try the key. It may be necessary to access locking mechanism from the inside.
