boot keeps opening?

my Nissan micra 2008 boot keeps opening on its own even while driving also a beeping noise inside car like the noise it makes when petrol is needed but continuous

Something is stopping the boot catch from completely locking. I think the continuous bleeping is from the lock managemnt system, telling you trhe car is insecure.
Have a goodly rummage round the boot closure fo rany obstructions and in and around the lock area fo ranything thay may be blockiking it.
Have you done a Google search for Micra boot lock problems or Micra boot catch problems? There may be a few mentions on dedicated motoring forums if its a common problem

Boingo - couldn't resis it. I did a quick Google search and got a pageful of hopeful results. The $64000 question is: Why didn't you search? It was Sooooo easy!

Anyway. gripe aside. try these for inspiration:
