Trunk Opening
I've noticed that when I open the trunk from inside the car, the trunk lid opens and raises up. When I open the trunk using the key fob, it only unlocks the trunk, but doesn't raise the lid. Anybody else notice this and think it's odd or is it just my car? Or can this be changed so the trunk lid raises when using the key fob. I didn't see this covered in the manual.

I will be surprised if it does not open with fob operation.

Do I need a new key fob or can I fix it?
Whenever I touch my key, it pops the trunk open without pushing the trunk button. My other key works fine so I know it’s just one of my key fobs that’s malfunctioning question is do I replace the key fob or can I fix the key fob?
