Trunk closing looks abnormal

Hi all, quick question. Is our trunk supposed to shut pretty hard? My tailgate slams so hard it doesn’t do the “sucking in” part for the soft close like some other cars' tailgates do. Is that normal?

Here is my tailgate. Notice how it just drops and slams at the end.

Here is tailgate of Q60. Notice how slow it is and how it catches and sucks in at the end.

I replaced the lock actuator since the "trunk open" light came on. Recently, the light came back on so I brought the car back to the shop. The shop says that the lock actuator is working and suggested it might be a faulty latch. But I think the latch is working. The light went away after I gave it a little push. The "trunk open" light is intermittent so am wondering if it looks normal to you? Is there a way the dealer can adjust how fast/slow the tailgate comes down?
