Two weeks later though, same problem. This time I was the last to use the car, and I drove it 15 kilometres after closing the trunk. Between the time I eyed it as I walked into the house and the next morning, the door opened again.

The dealer thought I might have triggered the trunk release accidentally by touching the SmartKey in my pocket. But I couldn't simulate that at all. It takes a firm, long push to open the trunk remotely. After checking the sensors and finding nothing wrong, and with no other such issue reported through official channels, the dealer is contacting Toyota.

Does anyone have any idea what might be happening? Anyone with a similar problem?

Thanks
Not the trunk but all kinds of crazy chit has happened. Garage doors opening and closing in middle of nite, electronic gate doing the same at times, I have left the car at my other place and everything is ok when car is not at home. Must be something to do with frequencies. Garage doors and gate have the security (rolling codes). Also Have been inside of stores and the horn starts blowing like the alarm going off with no one around. There is a lot of spooky chit with these cars. At my Docs office another fellow has a TCH and he cannot unlock his car at times and I can parked rite beside him, figure that out. He also says his skylite opens randomly and the %itch on the phone menu swears at him at times lol
