Default Lexus IS 2016 trunk won't close
Hi! When closing the trunk today, I pushed it too hard because there were some bags inside. Now it won't close and looks like this:

Can I fix this by myself???
I appreciate any help!
Thank you!!!!

Looks like you knocked the spring out of place. Try to put it back in the position pictured above.

Some time ago, i vaguely remember watchng a youtube video on the trunk torsion bar when I was trying to figure out rattling sound in the trunk. If I remember correctly, this was it... hope it helps.
