What causes the Civic trunk to not stay closed?
1 Answers
Civic trunk not closing is mostly caused by trunk door lock failure. The following are the reasons why the trunk cannot close: 1. The main reason is the lack of lubricating oil inside the trunk door lock, causing parts to jam and fail to work properly, thus preventing the trunk from locking. Solution: Disassemble the trunk door lock and add lubricating oil. 2. Do not leave the smart key remote in the trunk and close the lid. If the remote is left in the car, the buzzer will sound and the trunk cannot be closed. 3. If a person carrying the smart key remote is within the remote range, another person without the remote can unlock the trunk. 4. When closing the trunk, do not place the smart key remote near the trunk or near the rear seats.
