You have a bad trunk latch, you will need to replace that latch, its not a hard repair though, like three nuts, you will need to get the trunk open from the inside though, toy with the latch until it opens, you will then be able to replace the part.

2004 Nissan Sentra cannot open trunk

you need to have some software like you would use on the ecu but for the central locking unit instead .. i think there is a separate fuse for the rear lock. check it and see if it has blown. only other way to get in the back is the arm rest in the rear seat. and open the short side of the back seat. there is a pull bar and the back of the seat need to pull the bar and pull the seat down at the same time.

The trunk of my 2005 Nissan sentra is locked and can't open even with key

may be manual release behind or under back seat and if not you may need to remove back seat and panal which should let you into trunk. once in there should be a release on the trunk inside to open it. most new cars have them to prevent someone from getting locked in trunk. after opened you may want to have lock system replaced or it could simply just need oiled....... hope this helps and good luck

It is located in the gas tank as a part of the fuel pump assembly and im not sure about the access but if you cant see a removable plate in the trunk then the tank will have to be droped.

Problem is with 2007 nissan sentra. The automatic key will not open the trunk and now the lever that opens the trunk from under the driver's seat is also broken

this is strange. is there access to the trunk from the rear seat? if not the rear seat will need to be removed to get to the trunk and then there will be a pull ring that releases the trunk latch. it is a safety requirement on all cars to let someone get out of the trunk
