You've probably got it locked. Open your glove box, on the left side there will be a switch, I believe it should be in the up position (I could be wrong about the direction). Either way switch it up if it's down and vice versa. That will allow you to use the button again. They made this feature so that the valets can't open your trunk without the master key, you switch the switch and lock the glove box. A nice feathure if you ask me.

I'd guess that the switch is in "valet" mode also.
When I received the initial overview from the dealer, he turned the switch to disable the trunk release. I afterward found the problem, and threw the glove compartment switch to " dis-able".

Too many things to keep track of, IMHO!

Also make sure that you hold the button in for about 2-3 seconds or so. This is so you don't accidently open it.
