I have two buttons in my trunk: close and close/lock. If I push close, it closes. If I push close/lock, 90% of the time it won't close. On my 550, this used to happen when I was standing away from the trunk and somebody else tried to close it using that button. I guess it's a safety measure if you're not nearby with the key.

The behavior is the same, except for the fact that I'm standing BEHIND THE CAR. I think I'm going to let the dealer explain this to me. Perhaps the battery in the key is dying? Odd for being so new, but I also realized that the car won't unlock from the same distances my 550 would.
yeh that is odd. I'd let them figure it out. Swap out your key if necessary. I assume you've tried it with both your key fobs?
