Sounds like the end of your cable has snapped off in the lower tailgate. Try a search plenty of articles on how to replace as I had to do it.
Takes about 11/2 to 2 hrs and a few choice words plus a new cable

Need to lever the lower tailgate trim out from inside the car, squeeze your hands down insdie the tailgate and release the cable from the actuator. Once out, you can pull the cable manually to release Thumbs Up

Try pressing the lock and unlock buttons on the dash at the same time. Keep them pressed and you should hear the tailgate open. You will need someone at the back to open it though.
