When temperatures are very cold, near and below freezing, the tailgate will not open until temperatures warm up or handwarmers are used for about 5 minutes or the use of heat from the hands eventually allows the tailgate to open.  This is reported in Honda Bulletin 16-063.  However, even after replacement of the tailgate opener switch by the dealer, the problem has reoccurred.  No manual release exists.  This can be safety issue when transporting children that require larger equipment, like strollers, or the elderly which requires wheelchairs.  I went camping with the boys, and temperatures had fallen along with rain when we arrived at our campsite.  It took a good 5-10 minutes using handwarmers for the tailgate to open and thus allowing the camping equipment and tents to be removed to be setup for the weekend.      I believe this is a safety issue, because, what if an emergency had occurred and we had to pack and leave quickly.  What if I was transporting a child or elderly person that required  wheelchair that was needed right away.  This issue with opening the tailgate does not occur when temperatures are warmer, or in very cold, thus I believe this to be a major design flaw that results in a safety issue.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2016","productMake":"HONDA","productModel":"CR-V","manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)"}]}]}
