Description of the problem	Automatic trunk lift gate piston has not worked since purchasing this car brand new with 32 miles on it in march 2016. The piston was originally replaced 200 miles into driving the car. Piston has repeatedly fallen off of joint and has caused extensive body damage multiple times. This happened again over the weekend and caused very extensive damage to the trunk and roof of the car and the trunk is unable to be shut. Car is out of service currently and the trunk had to be bungeed to another part of the car in order to drive it to a nearby dealer which was a 30 mile drive on the highway. The trunk would not shut and it was open the entire drive. I have 2 young children in car seats and do not feel safe putting them in this vehicle due to the faulty automatic lift gate issue.
