After reading about the problems with tailgates on gm vehicles, I checked mine. I noticed that the left one was loose and not supporting any of the weight of the tailgate when the gate was open. As I examined it further, it came apart in my hand. The only thing holding it together was the plastic.
The consumer complained about multiple problems with this vehicle. The dealer and manufacturer had been notified. *ak the left door frame was unable to be lined properly.
