Yes a sealed trunk is a classic issue when trying to make bass. Experience has taught this to installers for decades. Some will try to drill holes in the rear deck or remove rear deck speakers to open things up a bit. When in this situation I recommend removing rear deck speakers if an option. The bonus is you will likely improve sound stage up front because you no longer have tweeters coming from behind you.
