Why won't the trunk open?
Years

Answer

If the car trunk does not open, the lock is probably damaged. If there is a traditional mechanical lock, it is recommended to remove the internal panel of the tailgate and lubricate the mechanism; this way, it is possible to also check the correct movement of the gears. If there is an electric lock, it is recommended to check the state of the protection fuse and the opening command; these elements are positioned in various points of the vehicle depending on the model.
