As most '09 owners (maybe other years) know, there are plenty of tie down points in the rear of the car, but there is no way to tie the hatch down if you are hauling something that sticks out of the rear- a large rug in my case. I found I could take a carabiner and click it into the latch and have a strong tie down point. Worked like a charm. When I'm not using the carabiner, I latch it onto an interior tie-down ring.
