While the car is running, the back hatch will suddenly unhook. It does not open fully but unlatches enough to tell the car that it is open. This also happens while I am driving, causing me to pull over to shut it again. The button to open the hatch is now non-functional (can't open the hatch at all) but the hatch is still popping! I am afraid that the whole will open while in traffic and cause a crash.
