Just bought a 99 CL600 used car too cheap. 3 hours after owning it, my trunk won't latch shut. I opened it two times and it latched shut, when the guy showed me where the battery compartment was. I get it home, I can slam the trunk shut all I want, but it won't latch. Can anybody help me?

    Sounds like the rear latch is defective, sorry to say.
