Default Question About the trunk Lid

On my parent's malibu, when you pop the trunk the lid opens the whole way up.

On my MC it just unlocks and doesn't open the whole way up, is this normal? or are the lift supports just wore in?

Thanks.

Hi Chris,
I have a 06 Monte, & when I open it from the remote or inside, it just
pops open, and does notlift all the wayup; (just a few inches).
I then lift it, and the struts hold it up.
I'm sure that stronger struts could be installed.
I'm sure other members will respond to your question.
I hope that's the only problem that you encounter with your Monte Carlo : )
Good Luck, `Space

I have a 05 and it just opens up a bit when I pop the trunk. I dont think I would like the trunk lid going all the way up. But thats just me.

Kind of like the door locks on my '06. It aggrivates me when you put the car in park the doors unlock. What ifI don't want them unlocked?

You can't change that? On my 2000 I changed it to do that, you can change it in the customizition section in the book, It would be weird for them to take that out of the 06 model.
