Description of the problem | I opened my rear powered lift gate to get out my groceries,and when it reached the top position,it immediately reversed direction and rapidly closed about half way down and then reversed again and returned to the full open position,then reversed again and closed all the way. This all happened very fast and i almost bumped mt head, getting out of the way. None of the safety controls seemed to work to prevent entrapment,when the lift gate started to close down on me. There is a potential for a serious head/neck injury ,and this could also crash down on a child and entrap them. My vehicle was in my driveway and was parked,when this incident occured. |
