    Internal boot opening switch

    Just discovered my internal boot opening switch (by drivers knee & next to Lane departure on/off ) opens boot while driving!

    Whilst driving in twisty lanes at around 30 mph decided to turn off Lane departure system to stop input in narrow roads.
    Pressed the nearby boot switch, easy mistake & the boot OPENED had dog in back, luckily he stayed and I was quick enough to stop and shut it!

    Have reported to Dealer and they will investigate.

    We set off on holiday the other day towing the caravan. Every time we made a right turn we got a bong sound from the system I had a rough idea what it was as so stopped to check. It was the lounger seats in the boot kept pressing the towbar deploy/retract button. Thank goodness it didn't try to retract. I don't think those button are in a good place too easily knocked.
