When trunk was filled with luggage and upon closing the garment bag jammed in the trunk latch, however the trunk appeared to be closed, after about 100 miles of travel the lid vibrated up enough to activate the light, the trunk was not noticeably open. The design flaw lies in the fact that the trunk need only to be slightly ajar before the trunk light comes on, the light is positioned in such a manner that it can easily make contact with items in the trunk, the heat from the light is suffucuent to ignite any flammablematerial which it comes in contact with, the light bulb which layed against the garment caught fire.
