Trunk Issue
I don't know if anyone else is having this issue, but it seems like lately my trunk randomly opens. I wont notice until I get in and start it, then I have to get out and close the trunk. It does not do it when I am driving. I would like to think that maybe I am randomly hitting the trunk open button on my remote, but I am pretty sure that I am not.

I open mine all the time. Working in the garage, my leg touches something and the Camaro trunk pops open. I put the keys on the counter before I start now because sometimes it sets off the alarm.

Of course, on a fob for a manual (no remote start), the trunk button happens to be the largest button...

Almost daily the button is in a bad spot , even if keys are in the pocket they somehow get triggered and open the trunk.

I do that and sometimes it will even blow the panic alarm..... I have learned not to put anything else on the same ring ,and not carry anything else in the same pocket. I put a finger print reader door lock on my front door so I don't even need a house key any more.

GM makes a relay kit that changes the trunk so that you click on the remote twice in quick succession to open the deck lid. I don't know the part number or whether it works on your car specifically but I know they have it for the Cruze.
