NHTSA Complaint #11447484 — 2016 HONDA CR-V

IN COLD WEATHER TRUNK WILL NOT OPEN. THE ONLY ACCESS TO THE SPARE TIRE AND TRUNK IS CLIMBING OVER THE BACK SEAT. THIS PROBLEM IS REPORTED BY OTHER OWNERS OF THE 2016 CRV ON THE INTERNET. I LIVED IN SOUTH FLORIDA AND RECENTLY MOVED TO A COLD WEATHER CLIMATE FOR WORK. IT IS COLD IN NORTHERN VIRGINIA AND I CANNOT OPEN MY TRUNK. WAS ABLE TO SEE THAT MANY DRIVERS HAVE THIS PROBLEM WHEN I DID A INTERNET SEARCH. I FOUND A SERVICE BULLETIN 16-063 ON THE INTERNET. IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE ONE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO CLIMB THROUGH THE BACKSEAT TO GET INTO THEIR TRUNK. IN CASE I HAVE A FLAT TIRE I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO LIFT THE TIRE OUT OF THE TRUNK OVER THE BACKSEAT.
