5 Latches/locks/linkage problem

Failure Date: 03/16/2010

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/.

6 Latches/locks/linkage problem

Failure Date: 04/01/2003

I am the owner of a 1996 Honda accord and 20005 Honda crv. The problem that I have experience with both vehicles which was purchased new is that the power locks clicks up and down from time to time, even after locking the doors. I believe this is a common problem with Honda vehicles, but may be I am the first to mention it. However, with the doors locks, it puts your safety and security at risk and there should be an investigation of this matter. I have been experiencing this problem with each vehicle after about three years of ownership or after the warranty expires.
