I hit my head a lot on the trunk hatch latch

It seems that because of the low angle, the break mechanism could not handle the weight of the door.
Can you put a stick to avoid the door failing on you.

Otherwise, in general I put my groceries on top of my back seat, because I find it more easy than opening the rear hatch.
Also I have some seat covers, and I put a black towel on top of the itemsto hide them from the outside.

Its not falling, I am the one who head butts it.

Place the groceries in the frunk storage bin; problem solved.

A really smart vehicle would beep to warn you that you are about to hit your head.

The car is smart. I am the dumb one. If you saw what I buy in Costco weekly you'd not try to put it in the frunk.

Wait ... you have a Tesla AND eggs???????

$5.19 CAD for 18 pcs at Costco. Maybe I should start smuggling them into NY?

Too bad we couldn't make the travel location specific like the locks so it goes up higher when not parked at home!

Tha's a great idea!!! I only run into this problem head first at home.

I am 6'2" and have no problem with the trunk latch, but my garage has a pretty high ceiling and I can open it all the way. I have, however, conked my noggin when standing at the side of the car and reaching over the rear quarterpanel to put something in the trunk (I was parked too close to a wall and couldn't easily squeeze all the way behind the car and was too lazy to move the car forward first). There is a sharp point in the trunk lid on the side, opened my scalp with lots of bleeding. Twice (slow learning curve), but I have learned my lesson.

A 'knock' sensor to open the frunk, like for the Aptera, would be very practical:
