2 Hatchback/liftgate Support Device problem of the 2011 Ford Flex

Failure Date: 08/21/2015

I had just finished vacuuming the inside of my 2011 Ford Flex. The rear automatic liftgate was up and I was leaning into the back of the Flex reinstalling my cargo net when the hydraulics failed and the liftgate came slamming down on my back. I sustained bruising and muscle injury. If it was my arm or leg it might have resulted in an amputation. If it was my head / neck it could have resulted in a fatality. If it was my child he could have been paralyzed. Why are there no safety features that prevents the liftgate from slamming shut if the hydraulics fail?.
