Hi. I too had the problem of my hatchback not opening.
I slammed the trunk and then it would not open. Took it to dealership and they fixed it at no charge. They didn't say what was wrong, just said it was covered under warranty. I of course didn't tell them I slammed it shut. I just told them it seemed to be stuck in the locked position.
Works perfect since they fixed it.

my only problem with the trunk is that at first i couldn't figure out how to open it but after that, it was smooth sailing. you're sure you turned the key to the left to insure that it's unlocked?
