Hi folks,
I have had my 2005 accord tourer for a couple of years now and had no problems at all up until today. I closed the tailgate and as it lowered itself it did not lock into the final position. On investigation there was a slight bit of free play (a bit like what you get on a car bonnet) and when pushed it locked into position. It is opening fine and closing fine but not making the final locking position. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
John.
## managed to solve my tailgate problem. The tailgate handle which is used to open the tailgate manually had not returned and was stuck in the pulled position due to the spring being rusted. A spray of wd40 did the business and all is good ##
