Rear hatchback opening while parked

[lonkholder]

I've got a 2018 Santa Fe. I got tired of the rear hatch opening while I did yard work nearby with a key in my pocket, so I disabled the proximity opening feature. Yet I've had two instances where I found my car sitting in the driveway with the rear hatch open, and I had not been anywhere near it. Has this happened to anyone else? Is it a known problem?

I have had the same thing happen...Today actually... I believe it is as simple as pressure being applied to the button on the key fob while its in our pocket. leave the key on the hook
