Consumer Description

MY TRUCK TAILGATE IS OPENING WITHOUT CAUSE. IT HAPPENED 3 TIMES BEFORE A RECALL WAS SUPPOSEDLY COMPLETED IN JANUARY AND HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES SINCE. TWICE WHEN PULLING A TRAILER JUST AFTER STARTING TO BACKUP. THAT LAST WAS WHEN MY CAR PLAY MALFUNCTIONED WITH THE APPLE PHONE. DURING TROUBLESHOOTING WORK THE TAILGATE OPENED WHILE SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY. I HAVE DAMAGE TO THEN GATE CAUSED BY A TRAILER STRIKE ON 1 OPENING AND THE DEALERSHIP IS NOT HELPFUL AND HAS NOT TAKEN THIS SERIOUSLY. THIS WILL HAPPEN AGAIN..
