| Description of the problem | The trunk on my eos will automatically shut once the latch is released to open. It will raise and then lower before i have time to get back to lift it up. I have taken it in 4 times to the dealership where the first two times they raised the sensors, the third time they replaced the sensors, and the fourth time they replaced the complete hydraulic system. The trunk still has the problem. |
