I had my trunk pop open once on my 2011 TG. I had forgot to lock it and may not have gotten it fully latched and didn't pull on it. I always lock it and give a pull on the chrome housing. Also my dealer service tech says to shoot a little WD-40 in it about once a month. There is no wear on mine that I have noticed and since that one time it has never popped open by accident. Maybe I'm just lucky. Leaving on a trip from ND to Niagara Falls next Friday and the trunk will be packed full as I can get it so I'll see how that goes. There are 7 bikes going on the trip so I should have someone behind me all the way.
