Component
Structure: body: hatchback/liftgate
Summary
Some vehicles may exhibit a condition in extremely cold temperatures (below freezing) where the hatchback will not latch (half latch) when closing. This is caused by the topper rubber, a component of the liftgate latch and lock actuator (a), hardening when the temperature drops below freezing. The stopper rubber has now been improved to eliminate this concern.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 84 complaints in the body category.
