    Trunk not walkup unlock

    Last week or 3, my trunk doesn't walk up unlock! Have to pull out the app, and tell the car to unlock the trunk (which works) - any clues? The doors DO walk up unlock

    Trunk Lift gate hinges

    I noticed the clips who secure the strut of the trunk lift gate, became rusted. Any suggestions on what to do and or where to purchase new replacements? I asked Tesla service and they would like to sell me two whole new struts!…

    Model 3 trunk latch halfway opening

    Greetings all. I drive a 2019 Fremont made model 3 standard range. The rear trunk latch had started opening only halfway. When the trunk automatically closed, it bangs into the latch and actuates the latch closed without grasping the eyelet/ hook. This leaves the trunk able to be manually...

    Model Y trunk not closing

    I bought a 2020 Model Y used recently. I didn’t notice this at the dealer but lately the trunk requires me to push on it to latch correctly. Otherwise it won’t lock. It’s also pushing down on the interior trim inside on the right hand side and crushing it. I’ve had Tesla mobile repair look at it...

    Trunk shuts but does not latch on my 2021 M3

    Yesterday morning I did an OTA update and was loading the trunk after which it stopped latching when shut by either the exterior button or app. (I don't thing the OTA had anything to do with it but I mention it as the problem appeared to start right afterward.) When shut but not latched there is...
