Sunday morning I was loading some stuff in the back of the X5. When I closed the hatch, it simply didn't latch. Checked to make sure nothing was in the way, etc. I could hear the motor when I hit the button, but no movement of the latch.

Had to drive 35 miles home with the hatch more or less in place, but not latched. Took it to dealership and am waiting for them to get in a new "hatch latch assembly".

Anybody else heard of this sort of failure?
