hatch wont open

My hatch wont pop.... Not by fob, not by key, or by the hatch button under the dash...

Any ideas?

Strange it won't work with the key at least. Have you tried keeping the key turned and pulling up and down on it?

Weird. Other than climbing back there and trying to pop the latch open with a screwdriver to see what's going on only other thing I can think of is put downward pressure on it, then trying to get the key to turn. Only strange hatch incident I've had is mine popped by itself when a battery died.

once i closed it with a bit of a blanket that got stuck in the lock itself---would not open by key either..had to crawl in and grab the little bit of blanket and pulled....might be a similar problem...
