Car Keys Gone AWOL!
My mind just about accidentally locked keys in car leaped out of my chest when I figured out that my car keys were gone. I desperately searched every nook and cranny, but they were nowhere to be located. I'm feeling stressed because now I have no way to make it to that awesome concert tonight.
I've already scrutinized all the usual locations, like my purse. Maybe they're buried somewhere? I even considered the possibility that a mischievous gremlin might have stolen them.
This is a disaster. What am I going to think?
Stuck Outside
It's a terrible predicament, standing here with your shopping bags galore and realizing you've got your car key fob stuck in the ignition. You rummage through your belongings but they're gone missing. Now what? Do you call a locksmith or try to break in? Maybe there's a chance you can wiggle it out... but before you get too desperate, calm down. There are some things you should consider first.
Stuck Outside : A Tale of Two Vehicles
It was/were a scorching summer day and my trusty truck/SUV/car decided to choose/pick/select this moment to fail/quit/break down. I was totally/completely/utterly stranded/stuck/locked out, sweating profusely in the blazing heat. Just as I was about to freak out/panic/lose it, I saw a glimmer of hope: my neighbor's shiny new sports car/convertible/luxury sedan parked across the street. Thinking/Assuming/Hopiing that they might have a spare key/tool/set, I raced over and knocked/rapped/pounded on their door. To my surprise/disappointment/shock, no one answered.
My luck seemed to be as bad/terrible/awful as the heat. Back at my own vehicle/ride/carnage, I tried everything/any trick in the book/all the obvious things to get in, but nothing worked.
Help! I Can't Get Into My Car!
I am so stressed right now. My car window is stuck and I can't get in! I've tried everything, but nothing works. I'm absolutely out of options. I have a deadline to get to and I don't know what to do! Is there anyone who can come to my rescue?
- What should I do?
- Is there a way around this?
- Do you know any automotive experts in the area?
I'm feeling completely defeated. Please, any help would be appreciated!
