Opening doors when battery is dead

[Ranvin]

Does anyone have a solution to this possible situation. Your MME battery is dead and you have a portable jump starter in your trunk or frunk. I know you can use the emergency connection located at the bottom of the front bumper, however you need a jump to use that method. My dilemma is the portable jump starter is on the car.
Since there isn’t a spare key or key hole to get in the car to get to a set of jumper cables or a portable jump starter you’ll need someone with jumper cables to let you in the car.
This isn’t idea for long road trips. If there is a way to get access into the frunk or cab that I’m missing please let me know.

No way to access the inside of the vehicle without an external jump pack. Keeping one inside will do you no good. Others have experimented with storing a 12V battery external to the Mach-E to use.

In reality, it's exceeding rare that a Mach-E 12V battery goes completely dead anymore. I would just deal with the 1 in 5000 chance it will be completely dead and call a tow truck for a jump if it ever happened.

The answer is to make sure your battery only goes dead when you're near a good samaritan with a functioning car and jumper cables.

Wow, really? You can't figure out how to open the frunk, or car, without a 12v power source. Couldn't be easier...

It's not ideal, but if you're really paranoid, or if you're going on a road trip and want to be prepared, carry a Milwuakee 2.0Ah M12 battery in your jacket pocket. You can use it to pop the frunk.
