We have a 2019 Ford Fusion hybrid for our DE car at school. Back in March the trunk began to randomly pop open on its own. Stationary, moving, while in the car, or nowhere near it. I would come out to the car and the trunk would be open. Or we would head out of the parking lot and, pop, it would open. Close it. Pop, open. Close it again. Pop, open. You could hear the latch cycling to release the trunk even after it was open. You can also hear what sounds like a relay under the dash clicking away erratically. Only solution has been to unplug the latch in the lid. I brought it to the local plug and play, I mean dealership, and they fixed it. Haha, just kidding. They reproduced the problem (I had to leave the car for a weak). They reprogrammed both key fobs. Nope. They reprogrammed the BCU. Nope. They replaced the BCU. Called it fixed. The summer DE instructor had no issues. Okay maybe it's me. Perhaps keeping the fob in the smaller pocket of my jeans is causing a problem. Put the fob in the cupholder. Nope. Pop. So now I have it disconnected again, cause I can't drive around in a car with a trunk that may randomly pop open when I have nervous anxious kids behind the wheel. I've searched the web. I am not alone. I filed a report with NHTSA. The dealerships have no clue. Ford isn't saying anything. Various "fixes" on the web have failed. Some suggest a problem with the latch. Some say it's the keyless entry pad on the door. Yet others say it's the fobs. Have any of you experienced this or recognize the symptoms of a problem. Help me Obi-Wan, you're my only hope.
