Description of the problem | Multiple times my tailgate has just flipped open on it's own, when parked and hitting the lock button on the key fob, and while driving down the road. There is currently a new recall on ram trucks for this exact problem but the recall excludes trucks with 8' beds. My truck has an 8' bed - and has this problem and should be included in the recall. |
