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.

 

 

Yes, "protrude" was the word I should have used. I've done some further testing and what Dizzy suggested is correct. If you walk away from the vehicle before all doors are fully closed and locked, you will hear the beeps. If you stay near the vehicle until it locks you only hear one beep.

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.

 

 

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.
