In this video I will show you how to fix and replace the trunk release latch on a Hyundai Elantra. This is a 2016 Elantra and this problem is common with many Hyundai vehicles. It's due to a very poorly made trunk release mechanism where the parts are made of plastic and will break after several years. In this video I will show you how I replaced the part and get the trunk release to work again.

Such a helpful video, thank you so much!! Hyundai quoted me $495 to fix my trunk and I completed the task for less than $30.

@peachykeen799 6 месяцев назад

thank you so dearly!! Couldnt close my trunk the other day and learned they actually put a recall out at the end of Feb for the 2016 elantras trunk hatch, tried to make an appointment at the dealership for the recall but they dont have a 'remedy' yet soooo it was on me. I knew I was gonna be quoted like 300 for this fix but found your video, bought the same part you bought through amazon and installed it today and viola! it works! I figured at worst if it didnt work I was only out 16 bucks but it worked! thank you again! wrote this out for people who were perhaps skeptical, its a simple fix that even my 20-something female self could do it.

@jamesdennis2058 11 месяцев назад

Thank you for your help. I fixed the trunk on my 2016 Elantra. 180,000 miles and still running great. I hope my 2023 Elantra hybrid is as good.

@scottlee9428 11 месяцев назад

Thank you for this video!! I was told it would cost $300 to replace the latch. A quick check online and I had the pice ordered and delivered the next day for $18. Your video showed me EXACTLY what to do and how to make it easy. Aside from a stubborn electrical clip that wouldn't come out, the job was super easy. Just wish I had watched this video first before having to pay $57 diagnostic fee. ; )

@RB-fn3to 11 месяцев назад

How did you get the clip out? I am struggling!

@pracsuz Год назад

this is fab. the dam dealer wanted an arm and a leg to fix it. Now I am gonna do it myself.

@pracsuz Год назад

anyone know what to do it the key and truck latch won't work. I made sure to get the correct Part but now they do not work. the cable release works. also the damn bolts that hold it on, broke off... jesus I though this was gonna be easy.

@janey1red Год назад

I was just quoted $1000 for this repair. I thought it involved the electronics to be so expensive. I am so grateful for this explanation. It is clear and easy to follow. Thank you!

They just made a recall for this issue thankfully, so at least they are paying for it even though it's almost a 9 year old car at this point

I’ve replaced my trunk lock actuator, the trunk now works normal and the remote and button on the trunk work, but the trunk release lever on the inside of the car doesn’t open the trunk. Do you have any solutions or ideas as to why this is happening?

@dial2fast Год назад

Take apart the trunk latch again, and when you pull the trunk release, you should see the cable on the latch also retract (you might have forgotten to connect that cable)

I just replaced the latch mechanism and tried the latch and it stopped working again. I noticed the old latch works now that its unplugged and i test it. Is it possible that the wire to the latch is the problem?

@clockwork421 Год назад

Mine finally broke today it was giving me trouble though leading up to it. Some say high heat may be causing the break of the plastic parts.

@dial2fast Год назад

It's simply crap design with cheap Korean plastic parts. The part that broke should be made of metal and not plastic. Hyundai might make good looking cars but the quality is lacking.

What if the lever and the remote won't open the trunk? How do I open it to replace the latch?

I played with the trunk button and hit it a couple of times in that area, and it popped open, also the dealership can help you get it open.

Hi. I replaced my actuator but now my key fob can't open the trunk. Any reason why?

@dial2fast Год назад

Make sure you connected the electrical connector on the actuator.

@@dial2fast thanks for the reply and the video! I checked and it's connected, could it be anything else?

@AnonymousMonroe 4 месяца назад

My 2013 elantra has no way to open it manually at the trunk. There is no key hole nor a button to pop. My keys are in my trunk, my car is locked and I'm completely unable to get in. Why is there no way to pop the trunk by hand at the back? 😑

Open your trunk from both the inside and the fob and press down on both

Tried it. No luck.

@clbdyc 3 месяца назад

There's no tension when I pull the lever. It's like the trunk is already open

@clbdyc 3 месяца назад

OK this is weird. My trunk just opened with the lever like normal. Closed it and tried again. Nope. So I did the fob/pull at the same time and it worked.

@KandiWellness Год назад

But what if BOTH the key fob button and driver side lever won’t open it? Please do a video on this too!!! Thank you 🙏🏽🙌🏽

@dial2fast Год назад

The only option is to fold down your back seat, then crawl into the trunk and try to see if the emergency release pull will open it. If not, the last option is to go in your trunk and cut through the carpet liner and rip apart that release mechanism and try to open it.

@KandiWellness Год назад

@@dial2fast thank you for your speedy reply! I’ll try the options

@Buzzy Год назад

I'm having the same issues. My truck release button broke off and the key fob doesn't work. I was gonna try to figure out a way to fold the seats down but every video I've come requires the truck to already be open to get the seats down.
