I've got this weird thing happening with my 2021 eTron. Twice now, I've been loading groceries into the back and bam, the rear hatch decides it’s time to close on its own. Super annoying because it takes a ton of effort to stop it. And get this - when I do manage to stop it, it doesn’t bother going back to fully open. Nope, gotta manually heave it back up every time. Talk about a pain!

Last time this happened, I had my key fob in my pocket and might've accidentally bumped the lock button. But seriously, shouldn’t a modern car hatch sense a little resistance and chill out? Or at least back off a bit? Anybody else dealt with this kinda mischief from their eTron? Starting to think my hatch has a mind of its own!
 
This is very annoying and dangerous at the same time, especially if you have kids. When I'm unloading groceries, I have to be very cautious and keep my feet well away from the sensor to avoid accidentally engaging it.
