has importnt papers.? It is a 1994 Lincoln Mark VII. I was coming out of a parking space and my car kept reversing no matter what gear I was in and I could not control it. Then the car just died. I jumped it and then it would run until I turn the car off and will only run again if I jump it. My uncle looked at the car and said that is shouldnt be the battery because it was brand new. One major problem is that I have important papers in the trunk for school but the trunk will not open!!...Even when the car is jumped and everything else is working the trunk won't open and this is driving me crazy because I have important papers in there!!...I heard that there could be a problem with the security system on the car. Help Please!!
