Two days ago the physical button on my Model 3’s trunk randomly stopped working.
I can still open the trunk via the phone app or the car’s screen, but the physical button on the trunk doesn’t work in any circumstance. And it doesn't seem to have anything to do with the Bluetooth phone key — it fails the same whether the car locked or unlocked, awake or asleep, or with the phone key present or not. And the phone key is otherwise working normally for opening the doors.
I’ve tried doing a scroll wheel reset and also powering off the car via the screen, to no avail. I still feel the familiar click from the button when it’s pressed, but there’s just no response. And this change did not coincide with any software update.
Has anyone else experienced or heard of a similar problem occurring on a Model 3 or any other Tesla?
