Trunk won't open
My trunk will not open with my remote and my key fob. I checked to see that the switch is on in the glove compartment box. I know that some people have the wiring harness in the trunk replaced.
My question is,
1) are there any fuses for the trunk or is it for sure the harness?
2) how much do you think it would cost to fix that, because I am no longer under warranty.
3) do I need to get it replaced at the dealer?
It is annoying not being able to put stuff in the trunk.
Thanks,
Chewy
P.S. I have done the searches with regards to this problem and it all seems to lead to the harness.

This has happened to my G about 4 or 5 times! Now that I'm out of warranty, I'm waiting for it to happen again! The last time, I had the trunk open, and the wire shorted out when I had it in reverse. Made the car inoperable, and I had to have it towed into the dealership. I was without my car for almost a week!
It's likely the wire bundle that enters the trunk lid. Personally I believe that it's a design flaw since flexure stress gets put on the bundle due to the angle that the wires run.
You'll have to pull back the rubber sleeve, and splice or replace the wire that's broken.
Make sure that you call Infiniti Canada to log a complaint and let them know you're aware of many others that this has happened to. Maybe they'll do it under an extended warranty for you (and maybe the rest of us).

The interior trunk release switch also does not work. I did get the rear seat to come down so I can get my stuff out. I will make sure I call infiniti Canada and log a complaint about this design flaw.
Thanks to everyone for their input.

P.S. I forgot to mention that I have the coupe so there is not trunk pass through. Thanks.
