1 Tailgate problem

Failure Date: 08/12/2020

Was packing my cr v and noticed very tiny rust spots all over the tailgate. Then when opening the tailgate noticed 3 bigger rust spots. I called Honda 104 where I bought the car and they told me too bad.

2 Tailgate problem

Failure Date: 05/28/2019

Tailgate window shattered for no reason. My vehicle was parked in a parking lot. I opened the backseat driver side door to get something from the backseat and within seconds heard a loud pop. I looked up and out the back window and it was completely shattered. It was still all in tact, just shattered. I looked at the window and there was no apparent reason why it would have shattered. When I shut the door a large chunk from the middle fell into the car.
