Notice: Do not use the emergency trunk release

Notice: Do not use the emergency trunk release handle as a tie-down or anchor point when securing items in the trunk as it could damage the handle.

There is a glow-in-the-dark emergency trunk release handle located inside the trunk near the latch.

This handle will glow following exposure to light.
