Why Can't the Civic's Trunk Close?

[AshlynFitz]

The issue of a Civic's trunk not closing could be due to a malfunctioning sensor under the trunk lid lock or a problem with the trunk lock itself. If the trunk is securely closed but the dashboard still indicates that the trunk lid is open, this suggests a sensor issue. If the trunk cannot be closed at all, the problem likely lies with the trunk lock. The Civic is a compact sedan produced by Honda, equipped with two engine options: a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine and a 1.0-liter turbocharged engine. The 1.0-liter turbocharged engine delivers a maximum power of 92 kW and a maximum torque of 173 Nm, with peak power achieved at 5,500 rpm and peak torque between 2,000 and 4,500 rpm, paired with a CVT transmission. The 1.5-liter turbocharged engine offers a maximum power of 130 kW and a maximum torque of 226 Nm, with peak power at 5,500 rpm and peak torque between 1,800 and 5,500 rpm, available with either a CVT transmission or a 6-speed manual transmission.
