The trunk on my 2014 ford fusion SE randomly opens. This occurs 3 to 4 times per day. Sometimes while driving, other times while its parked. This obstructs my view, and can cause danger to other drivers if contents in my trunk fly out.

The trunk of my 2014 Ford Fusion SE has been opening up randomly on its own for at least 3 years now. The trunk opens up at completely random times and is not exclusively associated with use of the car. The trunk opens up overnight as much as when the car is in use, unlocked, locked, or when the trunk has been purposely opened by me. My safety is put at risk because it provides unlocked access to the contents of my trunk to the public. My safety is put at risk because it has opened while driving. The safety of others is put at risk because my trunk opening while driving could effect my driving such that other drivers in my vicinity will be put at risk. The problem has not been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center. The vehicle or component has been inspected by the manufacturer and others and were not able to reproduce the problem. The other symptom of the problem is that the car will unlock and lock itself randomly while driving, indicated by the unlock/lock sound that the car makes. These symptoms and problems first appeared in 2019.

While driving or stationary, the vehicle's trunk lid opens on its own. Driving conditions, speed, etc. Do not seem to pertain to the issue.

My trunk keeps popping open. It does not matter if my car is in motion or parked. The doors unlock/lock when trunk pops open and the lights flash (as if walking out to your car and hitting unlock on key fob). It seems to happen more often in direct sunlight but does happen during the night as well.

The trunk will pop open by itself at different times. Sometimes sitting in the driveway, other times it has happened while the car was driving. Ford dealership hasn't been able to recreate the issue and says nothing is wrong. This has been a commonplace complaint on various Ford forums.

Sometimes our car will open the trunk by itself when it's parked. It has happened about 6 times and we can't figure out the problem. Sometimes it opens when we lock the car, and sometimes we'll go outside to find that it has opened in the middle of the night. We live in a big city so this is a major problem.
