| Vehicle is a 2005 honda crv. the upper rear hinge on the trunk (outside the vehicle) rusted completely off and the door fell off the upper hinge, and damaged the lower hinge as well from the weight. it fell onto my upper leg severely bruising it, and i had to muscle the door back on until it could be repaired. according to american honda and my case n012010-03-3101277 (gene) rust is only covered for 3 years. i am astounded that they feel this kind of thing is ok to have happen and that they are unwilling to help resolve this claim. the vehicle is designed so that this hinge is always going to be exposed to the elements - they should know that it is at risk for rust based on exposure. i'm lucky it didn't fall off an injure anyone or fall off while i was driving/ | |||

| The indicator light on the instrument panel indicates the rear hatch is open. the light blinks intermittently even though the glass hatch and the rear cargo door are closed. at times the faulty sensor indicates the door is not closed not allowing remote door lock. my local honda dealer has repeatedly tried (and failed) to fix this problem. *nm | |||

| Approximately 3 months after purchasing my vehicle, i started noticing that the light identifying the back hatch as being open was flashing on when i was driving over speed bumps, around corners, etc. i took it in to the dealer and they replaced the sensor switch. a few months after that, the light just started to come on and stay on. again the dealer adjusted and replaced the switch. it came on again within one week and the dealer put double stick tape on the sensor to fix it. within a week, the light came on again. this time, the dealer drilled a new hole and relocated the sensor approx. 1/2 inch inside the door of the vehicle. when the light is on, the back dome light flashes on as well. this is extremely distracting at night. additionally, when the light is on, the automatic locks cannot be engaged by using the switch and the vehicle cannot be locked with the remote, the key must be used. however, you cannot lock the back hatch and the alarm doesn't function at all when the sensor is activated. the dealer has told me that they have seen several vehicles with this same problem and that honda has not yet figured out a way to permanently fix the problem. so far, my hatch light is functioning normally again, but it has only been 2 weeks since the last fix. *nm | |||

| The rear interior well cover is a pull out 17lb plastic table. it has a 'd' ring latch that is held to the table with 6 screws. when you pull up on the 'd' ring latch you get a handle to pull the table up and out. when pulling up on the 'd' ring it pulls a plunger out of a slot is the back of the bulkhead of the frame giving you the appearance that the table is locked down. the problem is that there are nothing else holding the table down on the other three sides. it appears that the side opposite the latch should have a slot or maybe two straps across the rear corners for the table to slide into. appears honda overlooked this since they made the lifting 'd' ring also a latch. as designed however the cover is not latched down. just hope no one turns the cr-v over and after the air bag saves them have a 17 lb table cut their head off. | |||
