To open a car door as a beginner, the safest and standard way is to check your mirrors and blind spot, then use the inside handle or button, pulling the door gently towards you while holding it to avoid stressing the hinges, but if locked out, use a wedge and long reach tool or call a pro, never force it. For getting into a locked car, use a thin tool (like a hooked wire hanger or reach tool) to manipulate the lock button or handle from the outside, or call a locksmith.
Try a String with a Loop. Tie a loop in a strong piece of string. Slide the string through the top corner of the door, maneuvering the loop over the lock button. Tighten the loop and pull upwards to release the door.
