Default rear hatch won't open

For some reason my rear hatch won't open. Acts like it is locked. this is the second time it has happened. the first time it would not work for about 4 days and then it decided to work. I had an appt. to take it in and had to cancel. I am going to take it first thing in the morning while it is not working and see what they say. anyone had this problem? I have hit the unlock button many times. It is in park in the garage right now. Picked up someone at the airport and could not put the luggage in. Very embaressing!!

Default RE: rear hatch won't open

I just finished a 3 day show. My battery dies early day 2 so I was unable to open my rear hatch all day today.
Whats wierd is I charged it up, started it up, no prob but now my whole stereo system is dead. Never heard of blowing a fuse with a dead battery but apprantly thats what I did. No time or strength to troubleshoot tonight...

Many of us have a driver's back window that likes to work sometimes and other times not. It's the switch. I havn't had mine swapped out yet.

Well, I took it to the dealer first thing in the morning. Wanted them to see it while it was not working. Guess What. When I got there it worked? Well, they played around with it and it locked up again. and while it was locked up it would pop partway open. Could not open it all the way, still acted like it was locked. So they took it back and checked it and have ordered a whole new system for the hatch. He says it is shorting out. I take it Monday to have it fixed.
