Consumer Description

I don’t know if this is a safety issue, but it is an issue with my car and others with this type of vehicle. The lift gate does not always open. It makes no difference if you use the inside button the outside button or the key fob. It will either open about an inch just enough to unlock it or it will open about 6 inches and then it will stop and beep it has to be manually closed and try again anywhere from 1 to 5 times to get it open. There is no rhyme or reason as when it happens. I’ve taken it to the dealer two times and they tell me they have to replicate the problem at the dealership but of course it doesn’t happen there. I’ve also written to Toyota company and all they tell me to do is reset liftgate. I have done this about five times it does not help. It’s obviously an electronic or something else problem that Toyota is not addressing. if I am contacting the wrong place and there was somewhere else to make consumer complaints. Please let me know.
