This very thing happened to a friend's wife after he passed away. She was sitting alone in his Z06 with no phone, in a closed garage and she shut the car door. When she was finished memorializing Bill, she tried to exit and was shocked to find herself locked in the car with no escape. The battery had died after sitting for so long without starting. However, she... unlike the guy above was much more intelligent and found the owners manual tucked somewhere inside the car. She read how to pull the emergency release and exited the car unscathed. Although she did say that it gave her a good scare and it took a while before it occurred to her to look for the Owners Manual. All along she was cussing her dead husband and thought that he did this to her for getting into the driver's seat of his new Z06!!



Don I have to ask, how did the get the door open if the battery was dead? The outside door handle is just as dead as the inside if the battery is gone.


The emergency pull in the rear compartment of the C6 is a mechanical release. It is found in the rear hatch area on the driver's side under the carpet. New cars it is usually hanging out so new owners see it. This also works from inside the vehicle. The owners manual also tells how to use the key to open the trunk from the outside if the battery is dead.
