 Description of the problemFord 2018 f-350 super duty uncommanded tailgate opening with 3577 miles. Vehicle can be parked , stationary, turning or in motion and tailgate will open on its own without warning. Vehicle taken to ford dealer on 3-seperate occasion's and still unable to duplicate tailgate issue. Dealer did state it happen to them once in the shop. Total of 13 days in dealer shop. I called ford customer relationship center and was advised to take vehicle back to ford dealer. This vehicle is equipped with electronic tailgate that can be opened with the key fobs. Ford dealer has advised me from , human error pushing tailgate button, garage door opener or low battery on key fobs. All those issues have been addressed without any success. I did find on line a identical issue and a ford service bulletin (tsb) 17-2196 was issued on a ford 2017 super duty trucks but not for 2018 trucks. As of this date i quit counting after 30-tailgate openings. I have now attached a chain on tailgate to inside truck body to prevent the tailgate opening and loosing my cargo in truck bed. Note: there is no mechanical device to lock the tailgate or to override electrical component of tailgate?
