Trunk Lid Lock problem #1

I own a 2001 Lexus Gs300. I bought it new. My complaint is about the design of the trunk lid. Every time you open it, it will not stay up in a wind or when parked on a hill. It has come down on my head more times than I can count. The last time was today in a wind. It cut my head. I have talked to the dealer about the problem and he said that is the way it is designed and to get a stick to hold it up. The first day I opened the trunk when I bought it, it came down on my head. I wonder what would happen if a child got hit by the trunk lid.
