 We had a 2006 corvette on our car lot. it had a dead battery when we got it. we put in a new battery and took it to the local gm dealer to have the door locks reprogrammed. it sat there for months, and the battery would often go dead, because as i understand it, the electronics drain the batteries in those cars while they sit, shut off. one day we went to jump the battery, and i crawled into the trunk with the only key to the car, which fit under the trunk, because the doors wouldn't open with the remote. after the jump i moved the car into another parking spot, and found that i couldn't get out. i happened to know about the cable for the door located in the back of the trunk, so i dove into the trunk and pulled it, but it didn't work. i then tried the sunroof switch, or what i thought was the sunroof switch to no avail. i went back to the trunk and found a trunk release that popped the back hatch. it worked. i did not test every system in the car. the car was running, so it's possible that the low voltage problem might have cleared up on it's own. but i wonder, what if i would have shut off the car? what if nobody knew i was there? what if the car was on fire or in water? what if i was sick, disabled, or injured, and couldn't get to the lever in the back seat? what if it was an extremely hot day? what if i didn't have anything available to break out a window? the key to the trunk and the remote were locked in the car with me. the person on the outside stood there helpless. so, i googled trapped in a corvette with electronic door locks, and found that it has happened to others, including a six year old. i hope you will investigate this problem further.
