Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to two part adhesive compositions comprising a resin part including a curable resin selected from multifunctional, hydroxyl di-terminated polymer having alkene segments and epoxide segments in the polymer chain; an epoxy di-terminated block copolymer having siloxane moieties and bisphenol A moieties in the backbone and combination thereof and a hardener part including a curative for the curable resin. When mixed the compositions cure to a form that provides hardness but relatively low bond strength to a substrate and which can be removed from metal and other surfaces easily and simply with little residue.

Abstract: A striker apparatus (40) for a latching system (12) of a vehicle (10), the latching system configured to secure a tailgate (30) of the vehicle, wherein the striker apparatus comprises: a displaceable portion (41) to which a striker (43) is connected; and a rigid portion (42) connected to the displaceable portion (41), wherein the striker apparatus (40) is configured to deform to enable the displaceable portion (41) to displace relative to the rigid portion (42) while remaining connected to the rigid portion (42), as a result of one of the striker apparatus (40) or a latch apparatus (50) of the latching system (12) being translated in a vehicle-inboard direction relative to the other of the striker apparatus (40) or the latch apparatus (50) while the striker (43) is latched to the latch apparatus (50).
