Hey all, anyone had problems with the back window opening randomly? Scary. I came out of the video store the other day and my back hatch was open... luckily my sub, tool box and headlamp were still there. Then yesterday I was driving down the road and my hatch opened up by itself... this aleviated the idea that the video store incident was a product of me accidently hitting the back hatch opener on my key remote. Thoughts? |

Sometimes they do not shut well. Any gunk in the gasket on the door frame keeps it from latching well, too. |

Mine did that when the original battery went bad. Hop in; turned the key, and the back window opened. No go but still an interesting new feature. I'm told things act strange when the body computers don't get good-enough voltage. My dentist got rid of his land rover when everything electrical wen goofy. Dealership charged to fix every individual problem until he traded it in... I bet they stuck a battery in it then. |

I had that happen about a year or so ago. I believe I had to have the rear latch replaced as there was some corrosion starting on some of the electrical portions of it causing that to happen. I had that replaced and haven't had a problem since. I never saw the recall for it, just had it replaced. If I remember it wasn't very expensive to have to replace. Funny story, it happened to me once when I hit the lock button on the remote the window opened. I was like "I didn't hit the rear window open button?" Then I went out in the pouring rain, tried again to lock it and same results. I had to shut the glass and then lock it with the manual lock on the door so I didn't use the remote |
