Tailgate fell open while I was pulling a cargo trailer on interstate 40 in tennessee. Due to road roughness and noise I was unaware of it until I stopped for fuel. The tailgate had fallen onto the trailer jack handle and damaged the tailgate. There is a significant dent into the top of the tailgate and also damage to the plastic topcap on the tailgate. In addition there is an arc shaped scratch across the tailgate above the latch handle.

The tailgate on my 2016 ram 2500 power wagon has fallen open three seperate times in the past month. After the first incident, I made sure it was fully shut by pulling/tugging on the tailgate. All three incidents occured immediately after entering the truck and while accelerating. The truck was moving just under 30mph.
Purchased a 2016 dodge ram 2500 turbo diesel laramie, new, returned the truck due to a vibration bad enough the seats, hood, rear bed shook. It was bad enough I had to slow down to have the shaking stop. Then when on the highway the only safe driving speeds where under 62 and over 80. Anything in between caused the truck to shake. So, the truck sat in my driveway, the only time I drove the truck was when I had to and even then, I would only drive it on the back roads due to the shaking. Truck as been back 4 times for over a total of 30 days to work on truck with no solution to the problem. Shaking starts at 62 MPH and up, 72 MPH being the worse.
