So I'm the most notorious with not closing my door hard enough.
But on Wednesday night, we were at Timmies Heartland, just having coffee.
When I started driving, it says not all doors are close, so I shut mine, then everyone else did.
But the icon was still there!
So when we all got back to my place, we found out it was the trunk ? WTF.
Noone got out of the car when we were at Timmies. So I didn't know whow the trunk was ever opened?
Anyways, anything similar happened to you all before? :loco

It happened to me once. I didn't realize the trunk was unlocked until I got to work... I think I must have hit the trunk button on key fobs.

IIRC i think it was for 09+

Maybe an 08 or 08.5 can chime in and confirm?

so does prinsesa have an aftermarket alarm or stock because my 2010 gx didn't come with the fobs or the module but has the trunk actuator installed

dam:( i want that

Then install one!

There's a number of ways to do it... I used the OEM trunk mechanism, a DEI module, and a relay. Triggered by pressing the door unlock four times (could have used three, but I wanted the extra press as a buffer so prevent accidentally opening the trunk when only unlocking only the doors)

If I accidentally hit the trunk release button on my keyfob and the trunk popped open, I'd be delighted since I've got an 07 and no trunk release!
But there's always that hope that if I push that button enough times, the trunk will pop open. lol

Maybe you accidently hit it/opened it when you got to Tim Hortons lol...if it doesnt happen again, just some random story to tell about your "cutie patootie" ;)

LOL yeah I hope it doesnt happen again.
It was really weird. Plus I had to endure everyones whining about me not closing doors hard enough.
Alright, so hopefully I did accidentally pull the lever or something.
