Tl* the contact owns a 2009 honda cr-v. The contact stated that while loading groceries into the rear, the rear lift gate slammed down onto her head. The vehicle was taken to an independent repair shop and the components which held the lift gate up were replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and offered no assistance. The failure mileage was 42,000. Updated 04/20/12
Reported front passenger window malfunctioning to NHTSA early 2019 about this but no response. My research disclosed this problem was recalled but only up to 2006 models of the honda cr-v. My honda cr-v is 2009. Left with no choice but to cover repair costs of $325. Is there anyway NHTSA and your agency may investigate this? Said problem exists whether or not said vehicle stationary.
