Owners/service Manual Problems of Chrysler Pt Cruiser

Leaving a restaurant-backed out of parking space, had turned wrong way to leave; re-enter parking space, went to back out again when gearshift broke, was loose & couldn't put in gear to go forward or backwards. Was pushed back into parking space. Called for help. Several people looked at it & found a way to turn transmission/gearshift into gear manually. Took Pt Cruiser to shop to be fixed. The gearshift selector cable had broken. Had to remove & replace shift selector cable - automatic trans. The gearshift was slightly tight to shift when we first got the car, but the day before the cable broke, it was getting really hard to shift. Now that it is fixed it shifts really easy. Wondering if the cable was already tightening up from the beginning.

I was previously having a difficult time shifting into 2nd gear. I was trying to merge into traffic on the freeway and I lost my 2nd gear. I currently can use all of the gears in my manual transmission except 2nd.

Trunk lock will not open. There is no trunk keyed lock for insertion of a physical key and there is no emergency manual release on the trunk door itself. Lock only has functionality from key remote or lock release on driver door which is not working.
