Description of the problem	My trunk wouldn't open. I used the key fob & nothing happened. It was pouring rain and i had groceries i was trying to put in my trunk. I tried the button on the panel still nothing. I put my groceries in the back seat and got out my owners manual. It said in case of the trunk not opening use your key. I did & it opened & now i can't get it shut! I tried w-d40 on the latch & it didn't help. My husband tied it down with a rope. I never had any trouble before & now my trunk is held down with rope. I don't know if it's covered by my warranty but it should be. My vehicle was parked at the grocery store.
