## Narrative
Electronic tailgate opened on its own. The tailgate opened while I was either driving down the highway or when it was parked earlier. When I went to park the truck I back the dropped tailgate into a poll because I believed the tailgate was locked closed but it had opened on its own. There is no recall on my vehicle but I believe there has been over 320,000 vehicles like mine that have recalls on them for the same issue. Tailgate opens on its own. I have not had it inspected because they want to charge $179 to run a diagnostic check on it. There were no warnings at all. I've owned the vehicle for around 3 months and there has been one or two time that I questioned if I left the tailgate open or not.
