description: RUBBER ON TAILGATE HANDLE MELTED. I BELIEVE THIS IS DUE TO AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. I WENT ONLINE AND FOUND MANY OTHER SIMILAR COMPLAINTS. THIS MAY BE A FIRE HAZARD. NOW THE TAILGATE GOES UP, AND THEN AUTOMATICALLY COMES RIGHT DOWN. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED THE HEAVY TAILGATE HIT ME ON THE TOP OF MY HEAD CAUSING A GREAT DEAL OF PAIN AND SOME BLEEDING. I HAVE READ THAT THE SAME THING HAS HAPPENED TO OTHERS. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. IT DOES NOT ALWAYS HAPPEN. IT TENDS TO HAPPEN WHEN THE WEATHER IS COOLER OUT.
