Reason for concern

TAILGATE GAS SPRING END CAP MAY CORRODE AND COME OFF

Reason for recall

Anti-corrosion treatment of the gas spring end cap in production was insufficient. The tailgate gas spring end cap corrodes to such an extent that the gas pressure inside can force the end cap to come off. In the worst case the end cap can hit the customer and/or the tailgate can fall down suddenly and result in possible injury.

Remedy

The anti-corrosion coating has been improved in vehicle production. On affected vehicles the rear tailgate gas springs will be replaced with improved gas springs.
