- Summary
- Some vehicles may exhibit rust or blistering on the inner side of the liftgate/trunk lid, where it contacts the weatherstrip (as shown below). The paint may become damaged by weatherstrip chafing caused by liftgate/trunk lid vibration while driving. To eliminate this concern on cx-5, silicone is applied to the lip of the weatherstrip to reduce friction against the liftgate.
Owners of these vehicles have filed 303 complaints in the body category.
