Liftgate not closing fully - beeping
When my liftgate closes and latches I hear about 10 beeps in rapid succession which sounds like an indication of a problem. Upon inspection, it looks like the right side is not fully seated as the rear body panel and that of the liftgate are not aligned. Anyone had this problem?
Also, I couldn't find anywhere in the manual a translation for the beeps in rapid succession. |
I don't get the beeps, but my left (driver's) side protrudes a little, and you can see the taillight isn't lined up square like the other side. I am heading to the dealership to get this checked out next week.

Are you walking and more than 5’ away? I’ve notice that if I hit the close button and start walking away before it fully closes and latches then it beeps like you’re saying. I haven’t tested and confirmed my theory but I thought it was because it hasn’t locked and is letting you know the doors are still unlocked. I could be totally wrong but it’s only been when I’m walking into the gym or something after I’ve hit the button and it’s not completely closed and latched. |

I too will be off to the dealer tomorrow to have them assess the protrusion. I didn't think I would be the only person with the issue. Although I've never owned an Acura until now, I think and hope that Acura deems the alignment outside their "precision" tolerances. "Precision crafted performance" can only come with "precision crafted manufacturing" IMHO. We shall see. Thanks Mark and Dizzy. |
Yep I just tested and proved my theory. You have to make sure it fully closes and locks before walking away. Or just manually hit the fob when you’re walking away. It’s a reminder alert that you left it unlocked. Nice of them to do that. I dont have any protrusions on mine. If I wanted to nitpick I could say that it’s less than 1.5mm off center but I’m not that picky. More concernin is the duck farts on open/close. Waiting to hear the fix on that! |

My liftgate has flatulence too. Just a theory but maybe the moaning and the alignment are causal.

I wondered why it did that. Now I know. :)
