move to the full open position to allow the
object to be cleared.
However, if the resistance is weak such
as from an object that is thin or soft, or
the trunk is near the latched position, the
automatic stop and reversal may not
detect the resistance and the closing
operation will continue. Also, if the power
trunk is forced by a strong impact, the
automatic stop and reversal may oper-
ate.
