URGENT: Left my keys in the trunk

So umm.. I left my car keys in the trunk and I do not have another set of keys. Does anyone know how I may retrieve my keys other than screwing with the lock and breaking my windows?

(I have all the credentials inside the car and etc so I am not "breaking" into a car, as much as it may seem.)

See if you have any friend who has BCAA, I remember few years back, my dad had his car key in his car and locked, but our family friend was a member so he called BCAA over pretend it was his car and unlocked it haha

Another suggestion would be get a tow truck company? I believe they can break in to people's cars

Just gotta check

Call a tow truck. They can open the car for you. Just ask them first to make sure.

Wedge of wood, mallet and a long hanger wire.. takes 5 minutes or less.. (that's how tow trucks do it, though they have plastidipped the wedge of wood first)

RoadStar also offer unlock service.. and so does parking lots eg Safeway etc.

Ended up purchasing BCAA and now waiting to use my roadside assistance... Has anyone used the locksmith/unlocking service they provide? It states that it provides me with a 50 dollar reimbursement, but i've called places today, and they want $100+

I did the same thing. I had my keys on a lanyard and I grabbed a 24 pack, put it in the truck and slammed the trunk over the lanyard with my keys in there. I was so pissed off I tried pulling the lanyard to get the keys out and it broke lol. Ended up calling CAA.

Hopefully you don't drive a BMW. Even if you get into the car, you can't unlock the trunk without the key.

You're lucky to get your keys back so easily. I was on a BC Ferry one time and a woman discovered, when it was time to disembark, that she had locked her keys in her car. The attending crew member couldn't do anything but the last thing I saw when my line started moving was him handing her a hammer.

Just ask to slim jim the car door and once the door is opened, pop the trunk (provided that you did not manually lock the trunk).
