Description of the problem | I had the tailgate recall completed on my vehicle, shortly afterwards, i was still experiencing issues with the tailgate falling while driving. I returned the vehicle to ford again to report the issue. The ford dealer worked on the vehicle for 2-3 days and returned the vehicle to me again stating it had been fixed. The recall did not resolve the issue. The tailgate opens unexpectedly when the vehicle is in motion. I do not know if it happens on the freeway, city street or while turning. |
