Wow, I thought I was the only one with that problem!

Press number two unhooks again and then I can open the hatch fully.

Anyone know what I'm talking about?

I am still very new in ownership, but I do not like that I cannot close the hatch without touching a painted surface. I hate (HATE) the finger marks left by closing the hatch. All I want to a handle on the underside so I can pull it down without touching the outside. Maybe it is there and I cannot see it.

And I dislike the HUGE import tax here in PR.

I agree with this as well, this is a big problem when you have a black car and live in a dusty environment.

Same complaint here. Even my RSX had a handle inside the hatch. What I do as a workaround is use my index finger and pull down on the latch ring. Wipe off any grease from the ring first and after a few tries you'll get a feel for how much force you need to overcome the hydraulics without slamming the hatch.
