1 Hatchback/liftgate problem

Failure Date: 01/18/2008

When the vehicle is on an incline (front of the vehicle facing up the hill), the rear lift gate has a tendency to open on its own. This happened to me; as soon as I opened the bottom portion of the tailgate (which keeps the upper portion closed), the top section immediately opened, striking me on the bridge of my nose. This force of the impact almost knocked me to the ground, left me disoriented, cut and bleeding.
