What is lubricating the trunk all about?

The trunk is a storage compartment usually located at the rear of the vehicle. This area is accessible via either a lid or a door. The hinges allowing the door to open and close smoothly need to remain lubricated in order to operate properly.

Keep in mind:

  • Trunk doors can be quite heavy, causing more wear and tear on the hinge attaching it to the vehicle.
  • Heavy trunk doors and lids can be extremely difficult to open if the hinges seize or jam.
  • Broken or bent hinges will not return to operating condition through lubrication alone, additional repairs are required.

How it's done:

  • Apply grease to the hinges and the latch.

Our recommendation:

At the first sign of noise or difficulty with opening or closing, lubricant should be applied to the hinges of a trunk door or lid. Before the application, the hinge or hinges should be inspected for damage or mechanical problems. While this is being done, we recommend that other hinges around the exterior of the vehicle be inspected and lubricated as well. If the lubricant on the hinges connecting the truck door or lid to the vehicle has depleted to the point of needing replacement, it is likely that other lubricated parts need servicing as well.

What are the common symptoms indicating you need to lubricate the trunk?

  • Opening or closing the trunk door or lid is more difficult than it once was.
  • A loud squeaking noise is heard when the trunk door or lid is opened or closed.
  • The trunk may not latch properly when closed.

How important is this service?

This service is moderately important, as trunk lids have a tendency to latch improperly or require multiple attempts at closing to stay shut. Not only is this very inconvenient, but the trunk could open while the vehicle is in motion. Regular lubrication will ensure smooth operation and prevent expensive repairs from being necessary in the future.

Mahdi arrived promptly after calling, worked seemingly efficiently (I know too little about auto mechanics to be objective), wasting no time and informed me that part of the scheduled work was unnnecessary. I appreciate that!

Kia Amanti V6-3.5L - Tune-up - Woodstock, Georgia
The whole experience still overwhelms me. Gary appeared, slightly early.actually! Not my stereotypical view of an automobile mechanic, he was so clean-cut, and he left still looking fresh-showered after working on my dirty car! He came in a neat SUV that could have been a family car although I had expected a moving van, and apparently it held everything he needed. I "knew" he would have to return to a shop for or even have to order parts. I worried about his back, bending for hours over my car's front end, and I was afraid dark would come before he could finish the job, but he did it much earlier than I had expected, leaving me plenty of time to go grocery shopping before nighttime in a smoothly driving car. What a pleasure it was to stay at home today and catch up some desk-work, and what a relief to drive my car with confidence in its running. I won't be able to keep quiet about my great experience.
