Default Trunk open warning message

Guys, I have a 2014 Z51 Euro Spec over in the UK and its just started causing me an irritating problem, the trunk open warning message displays when driving even though the trunk is closed and latched, any body experienced the same fault?


All suggestions welcome.

Have your battery checked, a weak battery will cause all kinds of warning lights to come on. Your 2014 battery is probably on life support. I have noticed C-7 batteries will just go dead with no warning.

There's a Bulletin and Software update fix for that from GM for the Convertibles.
It came out about a year ago.
