Consumer Description

UPON ACCESSING THE TRUNK, I HAVE BEEN STRUCK ON THE BACK OF THE HEAD NUMEROUS TIMES BECAUSE THE TRUNK LID DOES NOT STAY UP UPON OPENING. I HAVE HEARD THAT THIS DESIGN FLAW WAS CORRECTED AFTER A CERTAIN MANUFACTURER DATE, BUT I REPORTED IT TO MY DEALER WHO DID NOTHING ABOUT IT AND SAID THAT NOTHING COULD BE DONE ABOUT IT.
