Consumer Description

MY REAR HATCH QUIT 48 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE. FIRST THE REAR DEFROST/WIPER/WINDOW QUIT SOON FOLLOWED BY THE HATCH NOT OPENING AT ALL. THE ISSUE LIES WITH THE INADEQUATE 360 DEGREE SEALING OF THE REAR HATCH ITSELF. SEVERAL ISSUES HAVE RESULTED FROM THE INADEQUATE SEAL: WATER COMING IN UNDER THE HATCH AND MOLD FORMING INSIDE THE VEHICLE. DUST COMES IN THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING ON DIRT ROADS. NIGHT DRIVING IS ESPECIALLY DIFFICULT DUE TO THE REAR WIPER AND DEFROST NOT WORKING. EVERY 03-05 OWNER I SPEAK WITH HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE REAR HATCH AND THE INTERNET FORUMS ARE ENDLESS.
