Whether you are borrowing, renting, or buying a car, you want to know how to operate it. It is never pleasant to seem like you don’t know what you are doing. Opening the trunk of a Jeep Patriot (or any car) should be an intuitive process. However, that isn’t always true.
The method for opening a trunk can change between car brands and sometimes model years. Below are the steps for opening a Jeep Patriot trunk.

- Insert the key into the lock on the trunk.
- Turn the key to the right.
- Pull the handle on the center of the trunk above the license plate.
- Lift the trunk open.
You need to open the trunk whenever you want to put something in the cargo space, lay the seats down, remove something from the cargo space, or clean the car. It will be much harder to enjoy a trunk’s benefits if you never open it.
