This is more than likely a rear SAM failure. The rear Signal Acquisitions Module controls the remote trunk feature among many other features. This issue usually requires replacement of the unit, however in some cases a software flash may be available for the SAM module. Proper diagnosis will be necessary with the MB Star diagnosis system available at all dealerships.
