I don't think that is what he is talking about. From what I gather the right button is only pressed once but the hatch struts have become weak and do not pop the hatch fast enough to clear the latch. The hatch is now cracked open and not free from the latch. So, the right button has to be pressed again to free and open the hatch.

I have the same problem plus the condensation in the tail light and a rattle after warmup coming from under the car. It sounds like the heat shields rattling or something.

These are all minor problems and will be fixed under warrantee.

You will have to use glue. The doors, hood and tailgate are aluminum.

Luckily the rear fenders are magnetic and just big enough to cram everything onto it just looks terrible.

Didn't come standard on mine (and it's not listed on the window sticker either, so it wasn't there from the factory and removed by the dealer).

[Edit] Sorry, my bad - I thought you were referring to the rear trunk mat. The Touring does indeed come with a cover that hides the area under the rear hatch...

is rattling normal. i hear like its from under the car. it rattles after i turn the car off. i hear it on my bro's jeep after he turn his car off. i thought it was normal. didnt think i hear it when i use to have the 07 civic.

Could small pebbles lodged in the tires cause such an obvious clicking sound?

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.

A backup camera isn't useful unless they also install sensors to tell you how many feet you are from hitting something..

Only Luxury car's have these sensors. You'll be hard pressed to find that in a sports car.

I wouldn't trust judging distance with just a picture.

Do what I do.. don't parallel park, and don't backup, lmao. ;-)

Most annoying is nose smear on windows from people trying to look at the interior.
