Consumer Description

THE RUBBER COVER OF THE LIFTGATE SENSOR MELTED. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT IT CATCHING FIRE AND THE DOOR DOES NOT OPEN WHEN THIS IS TOUCHED AS IT IS SUPPOSED TO. I HAVE READ MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ONLINE FROM OWNERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. THE BLACK RUBBER MELTS AND STICKS TO FINGERS AND IS HARD TO REMOVE. I HAVE GRANDCHILDREN WHO TRY AND OPEN THE DOOR AT TIMES. IT ALSO CAUSES THE SENSOR TO MALFUNCTION SINCE THE RUBBER PIECE INTERFERES WITH THE SENSOR. THIS VERY COMMON DEFECT SHOULD ELICIT A RECALL.
