2017 SEAT Leon – I accidentally pushed the boot latch into the locked position while the boot was open
Hi everyone,
I have a 2017 SEAT Leon 5F. The boot was not closing properly, and while the tailgate was open, I pushed the rotating latch mechanism inwards with my hand to see if it would move.
Unfortunately, the latch clicked into the closed/locked position while the tailgate was still open. Now, when I try to close the boot, the latch hits the metal striker loop on the car because the opening is blocked.
The electric release still makes a normal clicking sound when I press the SEAT badge/boot handle.
Please help
