Why doesn't the trunk door of the Alfa Romeo MiTo open?
Years 2008-2018

Answer

The failure to open the trunk of the Alfa Romeo Mito is a rather common malfunction. The problem is often caused by damage to the power cables of the actuator, which, due to a probable design error, are stressed with each opening. In case of emergency, it is possible to open the tailgate from the inside, manually intervening on the lock.
