Explain a bit more? How did it get locked? don't you have a key? The open button not working? Do you hear the lock open when you push the button?

I know what it would take to get it open from the front, but it is no easy task. Even in a stripped car it is a reach. So

Key locked in the trunk, maybe?

Going in from the front is definitely not the easy way. Better to just hire a locksmith.

umm flip down your center console there should be a button to push that opens up the trunk.. otherwise have you tried putting your key in the keyhole on the back and opening it with the key??
