I had my trunk packed with clothes and a blanket on top. Its now jammed into the latch mechanism. I tried pulling it out from within but no luck. The manual release doesn't work. Can I get to the mechanism from the lic. Plate at the rear (ie. Dissemble)??

Have you tried the emergency release that hangs from the rear strut bar!?

nope, it is all internal. i would do the emergency release and have someone else try to lift the hatch

By manual release.I was referring to the one under the strut bar.

I tried to pull on it with a friend pulling up on the hatch but no luck.

Try pushing down on the hatch while trying to release it.

I got my lanyard stuck in mine closing it once and the same thing happened. I just pried it open.. Good as new. Not sure about having a blanket caught in there though

Did you get it out?

Had the same problem with mine, I had my friend pull and hold the emergency release under the strut bar while I forced the trunk open

Might I suggest a large pry bar?
