HELP!!!! Locked out of my HHR from inside and out!!
Hi guys, I have a really weird problem, I was locked out of my car last night and I had someone slim jim the vehicle. unfortunately I wasn't here at the time since it was at a diff location and I wasn't there at the time, long story short. They opened the doors but "door latches from outside won't let the door handle open, and they had removed the keys from the inside...but re locked car by accident...now when I unlock my only side that has a key hole, I can unlock, just not open...what else can I do as I DON"T have any type of funds until next week and I must get to work...If anyone may be able to help to open the door from the outside with a broken latch.
FYI the back doors are locked but door latches are in tact...if I can find a way to unlock all doors to at least open from the back and fix the door once Its open....thanks again

If you have the keys, why not use the Fob to unlock? Or do you not have one?
If not, then have someone hit the unlock button with a coat hanger, or the like, and open the passenger side front door, and pop open the drivers side.

I have had this issue , it was the battery gone dead with two dead cells, so the FOB would not work and the key was stuck in the ignition, the AAA dude slimjimed the drivers door, opened the hood and connected the boost box to the red terminal on the under hood fuse box and the stud on the strut tower, I then could open the locks and the rear hatch door , he checked the battery and confirmed that two cells were dead and he replaced the battery, everything worked great after and that was 4 or 5 years ago.
except my door latches are not working, awesome stuff I read but unfortunately, if my door handle from the outside doesn't work.. I can "unlock" the car with the key, just cannot open. Thanks again guys!
I sounds to me then that the internal parts of the door handle mech is broken or maybe the actuator rod just popped out, unfortunately you may have to have the other doors slim jimed to open it up!
I don't know why, but they unlatched both passanger and driver side...ugh I will try to see if I can slim jim the back or just do the good ol fashion pull on door and, enter a wire line to unlock, too bad my drivers side door is also broken due to its pastic nature...lol if there are any other suggestions I would greatly appreciate it.
