Consumer Description

DRIVING TO COLUMBUS, THE UPPER MOLDING AROUND THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT GOT CAUGHT BY THE AIR FLOW BENT UP THEN BROKE FREE FROM TWO ATTACHMENTS. THIS ALLOWS THE UPPER MOLDING AND BRAKE SLIGHT TO "FLAP" IN THE AIR FLOW. IF THIS HAD BROKE FREE HIT COULD HAVE HIT ANOTHER CAR BEHIND AND/OR BROKE THE REAR TAILGATE WINDOW. DID NOTICE A CREAKING SOUND WHEN OPENING TAILGATE EARLY IN THE DAY. LOOKED AND DID NOT SEE ANY PROBLEMS. *NM
