What to Do When the Geely Emgrand Trunk Automatically Pops Open?

Possible issues with the lock mechanism. If the latch is too dry and lacks lubrication, you can apply lubricant. It may be that the vehicle detects the key in the trunk or certain positions in the rear seats, mistakenly assuming that the owner left the key in the trunk, thus triggering the avoidance action.
Well, I've encountered a similar issue before. The trunk of a Geely Emgrand suddenly popping open could be due to accidentally pressing the remote button on the key fob, especially when the key is kept in a pocket. Try checking if the key is worn out or if the buttons are stuck, and consider storing the key in a different position. Additionally, the trunk lock itself might be loose or corroded from moisture. Gently clean the latch area and manually close it a few times to test. If the problem persists, it could indicate a faulty trunk sensor, poor wiring contact, or a common issue with the Emgrand's trunk motor malfunction. I recommend avoiding DIY repairs and taking the car to a professional repair shop for a thorough inspection as soon as possible, also checking the electronic control system while you're at it. Always make sure to pull the trunk securely and confirm it's locked after parking to prevent loss of items or safety hazards. Remember, don't wait until it's a big problem to address it—safe driving is what really matters.
Hey, I've been in car repair for years and see automatic trunk popping issues are quite common with Emgrand models. Often it's caused by worn latch tongues leading to improper closure, or corroded/loose trunk switch contacts. DIY inspection is simple: first close the trunk properly and listen for rattling sounds indicating the latch isn't secured. Then check if wiring connections near the fuse box are properly attached - cleaning dust might restore function. Short circuits are often accompanied by buzzing sounds from the electric motor. I recommend getting OEM replacement parts from 4S stores for reliability, especially for common Emgrand issues - don't skimp on repairs. Regular maintenance should focus on dust prevention to minimize corrosion. Most cases can be solved with simple self-checks, leave the rest to professionals.
