Your Valet cancel switch is set.
Open your glovebox and you will see a pushbutton on the the left side, if memory serves. When this button is set, the power button will be disabled, but the key fob button will still work.
This is for when you Valet your car, you push the cancel button in the glovebox, lock the glovebox, then give the Valet your Valet key, which will not open the trunk or the glovebox. Voila, no Valet rummaging through your trunk :)
Often full gloveboxes will be the cause of the button getting pushed accidentally.

When was the car wrecked? I say that because this lever is hooked up to a thin cable and goes all the way to the back of the car. A technician might have not secured the cable end correctly when the work was done. . Otherwise, the cable *could* go bad on its own, even though this would be pretty rare.

Does your rear seat fold down? If not, it can be removed for access to the trunk, but is a pain to get out. Usually there are bolts attaching the upright part of the seat at the bottom of the upright cushion, where it meets with the seat cushion. After removing those bolts, the upright cushion needs to be pushed up (usually difficult) to disengage 'hooks' at the top to the seat cushion. You can also go to the dealer with proof of ownership, they should be able to cut a key (you need the vin of the car) or possibly a locksmith to make a key. Good luck.
