Anyone found their boot open when they're sure they haven't opened it?

I've not got auto tailgate, but the other morning I came downstairs and my son told me
my boot was open. Initially I thought he'd probably opened it with the remote so didn't give it much thought.
Later that day I went to a clients house and had gone inside when one of my team came in and said my boot was open.

I'm pretty sure I hadn't pressed the button - it's not something that can happen without holding it in for a couple of seconds - doesn't just happen with a quick knock in your pocket.

I mentioned it to a colleague with the same car and he told me it had happened to him a couple of times.

My local dealership have said they've not had any reports on this model - old versions occasionally with water getting in etc.

Wondered if there are others out there that have experienced this?

more than likely water getting into the switch. its going to be that or you pressing release button. if you are certain you are not, then it can only be water in the switch.

Unlikely to be water on two cars both under 2 months old. Must be user error.
