Consumer Description

THE RUBBER ON THE INSIDE THE TAILGATE HANDLE HAS MELTED AND ERODED. IT IS STICKY TO THE TOUCH AND CONSISTS OF A BLACK TAR-LIKE SUBSTANCE. YEAR ROUND THE HANDLE IS DIFFICULT TO LATCH. THIS IS AN OBVIOUSLY FAULTY PART, AND SHOULD BE REPLACED AS THE MANUFACTURER IS WELL AWARE OF THIS ISSUE. I HEARD THAT TOYOTA SHIPPED A PUNCH OF FAULTY DOOR OPENERS LIKE THIS IN 2006.
