What is the reason why the trunk cannot be closed after opening?

The main reason why the trunk cannot be closed is that the internal parts of the trunk lock are stuck due to lack of lubricant, preventing it from functioning properly and thus making it impossible to lock the trunk. The solution is simple: just disassemble the trunk lock and add lubricant. The car trunk is essentially a storage compartment, and a trunk mat can effectively prevent dirt or liquids from entering and corroding the trunk surface, as well as keep items inside from sliding. More details are as follows: 1. According to Article 62 of the "Regulations for the Implementation of the Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China," driving with the doors or trunk not properly closed is a violation of the law. If you find that the trunk cannot be locked or closed tightly, turn on the hazard warning lights to alert other vehicles and pedestrians, and drive at a low speed on the way to the repair shop to prevent secondary accidents. 2. During daily driving, most car owners focus on fuel consumption and safety issues, but it is easy to overlook that the trunk is also an important component of the car. The trunk plays a crucial role, and safety concerns should not be ignored.
Last time, my trunk wouldn't close after opening, which was really frustrating! It might be due to debris stuck in the latch, such as luggage or small objects blocking the closing action; also, rust or wear on the locking mechanism is common, especially in older cars during rainy or snowy weather; deformed or loose hinges can also prevent it from closing, requiring adjustment to align properly; if it's electric, motor or sensor failure can cause issues, so check the circuit if the button doesn't respond; don't forget to clean the tracks and lubricate them regularly, and if manual attempts fail, take it to a professional repair shop.
