Looking for any insight before I begin tackling this. A search didn't return anything.


Hatchback unlocks as it should, audible. When latch handle is used to open, the hatch will not open. If the key is inserted, turned to the open position, and held then the hatch opens.

Obviously it sounds like a latch-mechanism problem. Anyone had this problem?

i just took it to my friendly neighborhood Acura technician and had it warrantied .......

 

common problem. Replace the latch mechanism. I replaced mine 6 months before I took it out to build the race car.

$50 shipped. (It was $74 from acura)

My next new car will have the most extended warranty available!

 

mine is still being fixed by the dealer under warranty. So far they ordered a new latch and they also had to order the acuator (i might be wrong on the name and part for that one). The last part hasnt come in yet but it should be completely fixed by wed or thurs. By then I can tell you for sure what parts I needed from the invoice

 

same thing happened to mine last month. Haven't gotten around to trying to fix it yet though.

 

well, i got the latch fixed at the delaer b/c it was covered under warranty still. I needed:

1 74800-st7-ao2 (lock assy, tail GA
2 91505-sl0-003 (clip, cowltop)
1 74840-st7-ao1 (actuator assy, T/G

hope this helps

 

That's funny, mine just started doing that here and there.
