I wonder if the ultimate resolution will be a recall or simply a service bulletin that will be applied only after your car demonstrates the problem?

My RC F wing is on its 2nd time being stuck
***My 1st post yeah!***
Just read all of your posts related to this issue and there is a lot of good info out there about this in this forum. My dealer pretty much said the same thing, they had heard about this issue. Ultimately they took the trunk apart the 1st time and put the wing in the rest position and told me that it will happen again after 500 cycles. Well after driving in ECO mode and trying to stay under 50 I reached that point again lol. SO I guess ill be going into the dealer again for the same issue on this expensive A Car!!

mine is now stuck in the up position also. I checked as good as I could to make sure nothing is underneath. when I push the button on the dash, I can hear some clicking so I think the motors are still working. I'm guessing the gears have jumped off track and are no longer connected to motor somehow?!?

Nope. It won't stay up all the time with the switch. It will always come back down after exceeding 55 or whatever speed and coming back below the threshold speed.
