Consumer Description
AFTER MY LIFTGATE OPENED, IT SHUDDERED AND CAME CRASHING 3/4'S OF THE WAY DOWN. HAD I BEEN IN THE WAY, I WOULD HAVE BEEN HIT AND UNDOUBTEDLY INJURED. VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHICH HAS CAUSED ME TO BE UNABLE TO USE MY VEHICLE FOR WHICH IT IS INTENDED - I CANNOT ACCESS THE CARGO AREA FOR LOADING AND UNLOADING HEAVY AND LARGE ITEMS.! I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE EXPLICITLY FOR IT'S LARGE CARGO AREA AND EASY ACCESSIBILITY. I NOW HAVE A VERY DIFFICULT TIME LOADING AND UNLOADING HEAVY AND BULKY ITEMS FROM THE BACKSEAT OF MY CAR.
