The rear lock actuator became faulty and was replaced 6/13. Just short of 4yrs, the actuator became faulty again in 6/1/17. The dealer was contacted an was told sorry, the warranty (1yr) had expired. 2 things are the problem with this actuator. Because the backhatch is keyless and has no release from the inside, this poses as a safety risk if trapped inside the vehicle. There are other numerous similar complaints for the actuator becoming faulty within a short period of time, costing $700+ to replace.
