Trunk latch itself may have failed. Call a locksmith.

There is a little black button inside the passenger side glovebox that turns off the trunk latch. Make sure this is not pressed in. Happened to me the other day.

The trunk opener button in the glove box SHOULD be pressed in to work on a Lexus ES300 2004.
