i had trouble with my latch as well. first to get the trunk open i crawled through the car into the trunk (thank goodness for hatchbacks)(uncomfortable and awkward) and used a screw driver to push the latch to release the trunk (it is visible). once the trunk is open you can access the lock/latch mechanism throught the inside by removing the interior padding (plastic screws). the handle that you pull on from the outside of the car is a lever which inside the trunk lifts up on the latch mechanism and releases it. when you lock the car there is an extension of this lever which slides back and then no longer engages the latch. on my car the slide seized up, effectively keeping my trunk locked. just some anti-seize and i was good to go. i hope this helps and if not good luck to you.
