The trunk escape switch
This function of the car has been widely mentioned recently. When the car falls into the water, catches fire or is involved in a car accident and the door cannot be opened, this function is definitely a very useful feature. A good escape passage is usually located next to the lock core of the trunk. Some vehicles will have a handle, and some vehicles may be hidden. You need to search carefully to find it, so you should know more about your car. It will save your life in an emergency.
Trunk escape is actually a mandatory standard from the US automobile safety regulatory department. Why is it done? It is to prevent some people from being kidnapped in the trunk, or accidentally trapped in the trunk with no way to open the trunk, so after adding such a device, they can save themselves in the trunk. This trunk escape device is also called the trunk emergency escape switch. In fact, all models sold in the U.S. auto market are forced to be equipped with such a device. Of course, some models in China also use the U.S. model. Regular configurations also have this device.
So this device can be roughly divided into three categories. The first category is called external, the second category is called pull cord, and the third category is called built-in type. Let’s talk about external first. In fact, external Setting it is relatively the simplest. You just need to find a button on the trunk, press and push it, and the trunk will open. Isn't it very simple? Then let me talk about the cable pull type. It is actually not difficult, but you need to spend some time to find the location of the cable first.
Like the pull cable of the H9, it is hidden in a small cover. Then you can pull and push it, and the trunk door will open. It is very simple. Then let’s talk about the built-in type. In fact, it is the most complicated compared to the other two types. After you find it, you will find that there is a cover on it. After you remove the cover, you will find that there is a small hole inside. At this time, you need to use a key or some other external device. You need tools to open it, so it is relatively complicated.
I once read a questionnaire on whether 200,000 or so family cars contain trunk escape devices. To sum up, most of these American cars are equipped with trunk escape buttons, and There is also a luminous trunk escape device, which means that there is still light when you escape. And German cars basically have it, and now many self-owned brands, that is, Chinese brands, also have it, but Japanese and Korean cars also have it. It's almost fun to tie the car.
