I am new to this forum, and cannot figure out how to post a new category: "Trunk Issue: trunk opened by itself"
Thus, I will post here.
I have a 2017 Honda Civic, and the trunk has been opening by itself, multiple times, although the alarm has not been going off. I took it to the dealer, who said it was my mistake. I watch the car and the key carefully, and do not make mistakes. My guess is this is a software glitch or similar problem on the part of Honda. To deny the problem, or blame it on the customer, will only result in legal action in the future. Honda should institute a recall, and fix the problem.
Not knowing that this forum existed, I posted the same comments at the Accord forum; and today, one of its members wrote back that I should change my key/fob. Hence, I am now using my spare key; and hopefully that solves the problem. Needless to say, I welcome any thoughts that you may have on the subject. Thanks so much.
