Have had mine 3 months and need to double tap the button and pull up on my hatch to get it to open. Hitting it once just allows the hatch to open slightly but is still not "unlocked" so that I can open.

1) Cold weather will cause the hatch to stick more often.
2) Take a copy of the TSB in with you to the dealer so there will not be any "We have never heard of the issue". Had mine replaced last year right when the TSB was first announced, no problems since. The bro' just started today (cold weather sitting in) so off to the dealer with TSB in hand to get the hatch springs replaced. |

I asked a friend of mine yesterday who owns a 350z if his rear hatch ever gets stuck and he said it does. Couple that with my 1985 300z having THE SAME PROBLEM and it's pretty obvious that this is a long-standing problem for Nissan that they have not bothered to fix. Kinda inexcusable.

I've noticed that as well... my car has 14k miles on it and when it's cold outside it doesn't want to open.
It will unlock and pop up but I can't open it without pulling on it and pressing the button as the same time. Looks like I'll be going to my dealer soon and I've only had the car a week. |

I got my springs replaced over the summer, and now these new springs are giving me the same problem as before. Could it be the colder weather??
