Consumer Description

AFTER READING ABOUT THE PROBLEMS WITH TAILGATES ON GM VEHICLES, I CHECKED MINE. I NOTICED THAT THE LEFT ONE WAS LOOSE AND NOT SUPPORTING ANY OF THE WEIGHT OF THE TAILGATE WHEN THE GATE WAS OPEN. AS I EXAMINED IT FURTHER, IT CAME APART IN MY HAND. THE ONLY THING HOLDING IT TOGETHER WAS THE PLASTIC. *NM
