clamshell opening problem

[xraygt]

New problem- pull the latch and clamshell does not pop up as it used to. I have to manually pull up on edge of clamshell on right side of car. It kind of sticks, several trys gets it, so far! Until recently it worked perfect. closes just fine. any simple adjustment to avoid seeing dealer? Thanks

I had the dealer replace the compression canisters that push the clamshell up. I think the heat gets to them.

Mine did the same thing. Also Replaced the canisters

Mine seems to pop further when hot than cold....
