I have two problems with my new grandland.

1.  Electric boot will only open on it's own 10 per cent of the time

2. It will not run in hybrid mode if the fan is switched on. Fan off and it runs in  in hybrid.

Has anyone any suggestions on how to rectify these problems

Hi, I have the same model/spec and had nothing but bother with all electrics. Same problem with boot. The car has been back at dealership since June and been told parts on back order! It seems to be a common problem with this car. Hopefully you get yours sorted soon.

Thank you for your answer. It's good to know that it is not just my problem. My car has been back to Arnold Clark's five times now (since September 2025) and the problem has not been sorted, I am now waiting for the dealer to get back to me but unfortunately they are not answering my emails. I feel it's a trip to the dealer for a face to face meeting.

Hi John

All the best with this issue mate, sometimes a good old fashioned face to face is the only thing to get things done

I have found out that if I have the aircon switched on (fan running) the car will run in hybrid mode (switching from petrol to electric running) so I travel with auto (aircon) switched on all the time.
