I locked my keys in my trunk and I'm about 1000 miles away from home. How can I get them out? I need help!

Call a locksmith - to the right side (passenger side) of the trunk latch release pad (where you put your hand to open the trunk when it's unlocked) is a small round-ish plug/cover.

Remove that plug, and it's a standard keyhole. The locksmith should be able to open the trunk. In the event that the latch-pad fails, this is where you put the key to open the trunk like most other trunk locks.

Alternately, call the local Volvo dealer - they can cut a key based on the VIN, provided that you haven't had the tumblers re-keyed by a non-Volvo shop.

Sorry to be a week answering this. Not on the forum frequently.
