1 Hatchback/liftgate Support Device problem

Failure Date: 07/30/2018

The liftgate latch failed causing the liftgate to not properly close and be secured. We had to drive with the gate open as it would not latch. The vehicle has a recall for the door latches which are similar. The lift gate latch should have been included in the recall however according to olathe Ford 913-325-4360, this is not covered under the recall and is a cost to me of over $350. 00 refer to recall notice NHTSA campaign number: 16v643000 which does not specify just the 4 doors, just "doors" however the rear lift door per the dealer is not included.
