Sticking Trunk Release
Anybody else have this problem with their SL 500?
Whenever the car sits in the sun the trunk release stops working. I can hear it moving but it does not release the latch. Attempting to open with the key, key fob, or internal switch doesn't work. The only way is to push down on the trunk lid and keep trying until it pops.
