Details

Issue: On certain trucks equipped with a power locking tailgate, the tailgate may open while driving.

If this occurs, cargo that is not secured could fall out of the truck bed and onto the road.

Note: This is an expansion of recall U74 (Transport Canada recall 2018-398).

Safety Risk: Cargo that falls from the truck bed could create a road hazard for others.

Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their truck to a dealer to modify the tailgate locking mechanism.

Note: This recall supersedes recall 2019-221.
