Have to get it to the mechanic tomorrow after work, because right now I can't charge it.

Local shop showed me how to use the manual unlock lever inside the engine compartment.
Since it's an EV-specific part they won't touch it beyond that (fair enough).
Now I'm using a bent threaded rod to reach in and pull a lever.

Have to call the dealership next week to make an appointment for them to take a look.
I fear it won't be cheap.
