Rear hatch sticking again after having TSB service for it

My rear hatch is sticking again and I've already had the new springs installed (last year) per the TSB. Anybody else seeing this?

Had the same problem with my 03 350Z. The spring fix worked for a while, then the two penny trick worked for a while. Finally I just gave up on the hatch popping up on the first push.

I did solve the problem with my 370Z and I don't think I will have the problem in the future.






















I got a Vert no big heavy hatch...

Hatch Sticks here too....started about a month ago..not sure if its fixable with silicone spray or maybe some good ol grease???

-Symptom: Sometimes when button is pressed to release hatch, it pops open but doesn't fully disengage lock.

-Solution/Fix: Unknown

I did last week. I took them out and spun them 180 degrees and it worked.

What was the mechanic doing messing with your hatch during an oil change?

I have taken mine in 3 times for this! Now they are going to put in a new electric latch and they want me to leave my car for two days to see if it stays working.

I am getting ready to take my 2010 in for this problem.Only thing is I am starting to hear a leaking noise from the liftshocks themselves. We'll see what the dealership says with this being a '10 model.
