1 Trunk Lid problem

Failure Date: 04/15/2013

Both left and right trunk strut or trunk lid lift support have failed to support trunk lid. Trunk lid does not remain open even when opened completely. Has caused injury by trunk lid falling and striking my head and neck. No professional medical treatment required at this time.

2 Trunk Lid problem

Failure Date: 03/25/2010

One or both hydraulic struts on the trunk lid has failed. This causes the trunk lid to not hold its own weight and slams down creating a potential safety concern. Took it to the dealer who did not have the part. Currently waiting on relpacement part (hopefully an improved version). This complaint filed for general consumer awareness only. Fairly confident the dealer will fix this concern.
