Reprogrammed the rear hatch Because car is parked outdoors, mice had created a nest under the hood. Nest was removed, cabin filter replaced and hood area was cleaned and treated to hopefully keep mice from going back.

Liftgate making loud noises when opening and closing. Dealer said struts were leaking and needed to be replaced. Quoted me $725 for each strut. All total with labor would be $1600. I declined due to cost and decided to suffer with the issue.

Remote door lock stopped working and our spare key that never gets used would not work either. Dealer said it was the key battery and replaced it. Seems to work fine now, but suprised batteries died so quickly, even in key that was never used. Still using original battery in my 10 year old Honda.
