How do I Retrieve Keys Locked Inside a 2003 Toyota Rav4?

Your keys aren't doing you any good locked inside your Rav4.

You're in a hurry to get to that big meeting, or to make it on time to your lunch date when you jump out of your car and shut the door. Immediately you realize that you've just locked your keys inside your 2003 Toyota Rav4. Few things can ruin your day like locking your keys in your car. When this happens, you can attempt slipping a wire hanger or similar object into your door panel to unlock your doors, but this is tricky and not everyone wants to risk doing any damage to their car in an effort to unlock their own doors.

Instructions

1. Call a tow truck, your local police or a locksmith. All three have the ability to get into your car without doing any damage to the Rav4 to retrieve your keys.

2. Speak with the representative on the phone to explain that you've locked your keys in your car and need assistance retrieving them. Give the representative your name, location and the type of vehicle you are driving.

3. Pay for the services provided by the tow truck company or locksmith for breaking into your car to retrieve your car keys. The police will do this for free, but your 2003 Rav4 might be equipped with more technical door lock features so it is a good idea to call a professional and avoid the risk of any unintentional damage from a police officer putting a wire down your door panel.
