CEL: You need to read the code in the engine computer to know why the light is on. Take the car to an Autozone or several other parts stores, they will read the code for you for free, then try to sell you the parts to fix it.

Trunk: You need to figure out where the problem is. Can you open the trunk with the remote? How about using the manual method, I believe with your car you need to open the trunk pass-thru hatch and reach into the trunk and find the handle, on the driver's side, give it a pull (check the owner's manual for details). If you stand at the back of the car and have someone push the release button on the dash, do you hear a click?

Thanks for reply. I fixed the trunk problem. I found that the main switch in glove box was broken, and I fixed it.

The engine light: thanks for you advice
