• Getting locked out of your car can be a royal
  pain in the proverbial posterior, but its
  important that when this happens, you try not to
  panic and follow the above tips to get back in
  your car as quickly as possible
• Ask yourself if youre really locked out of your
  car
• It might sound silly, but it can be easy to panic
  when you think youre locked out of your car,
  when in reality, the keys could be in the trunk,
  have dropped on the floor, or could even be in
  another door. Also think carefully about who
  might have a spare key for your car. These quick
  double checks could prevent you from having to
  call a locksmith.

• Think about the dangers of unlocking your car
  door yourself
• While it is possible to get into your car
  yourself using the methods below, its much less
  risky to call up a licensed locksmith and have
  them get you into your car with minimal damage
  and zero inconvenience.
• Opening the door with a pump wedge
• A tool typically used by professionals, it allows
  you to slip a small tool in and press the unlock
  button by inflating to create a gap between the
  door and the frame of the car. In the wrong
  hands, this tool can cause a lot of damage.

• Using a coat hanger
• Relying on you being able to create a small gap
  between the door and the car frame, a coat hanger
  is a common method for getting into locked cars,
  but if you get it wrong, you could make matters a
  whole lot worse by causing damage to your car.
• Going to the extreme and breaking a window
• Auto glass is hard to break windshields are
  shatter resistant and the side glass is tempered
  by the manufacturer, and youll need a seriously
  sharp tool to break the window. Unless you are in
  an emergency situation, such as a person or pet
  is trapped inside the car in extreme
  temperatures, you should never attempt to break
  any of the windows on your car to unlock the door.

• Think about what your break-in attempt may look
  like!
• If someone sees you trying to force entry into
  your car, they may assume a theft is taking place
  and report you to the police! This can become
  even more complicated if your wallet or purse are
  locked inside the car and you cant quickly prove
  your identity.
• Call an auto locksmith
• Without the right tools and training, if you are
  locked out of your car with no spare key to get
  back in, youll need the help of a local,
  licensed locksmith. With their services
  convenient, efficient and typically costing a lot
  less than a trip to the auto dealership, they
  will give you all the help you need when you get
  locked out of your car.
