Subject: Tailgate Froze Please Help
IP: Logged

Message:
I washed my truck and my tailgate was froze shut under my soft bed cover. SO i forced it open and now it shuts but wont latch. The latches are moving free and the handle moves freely, but it wont stay closed? Is somthing broke or just frozen on the inside?

Make sure there's no ice keeping the tailgate from closing all the way, it's possible the latches just can't be pushed far enough to catch.

My tailgate did the same thing. I just left it open till it got a little warmer and it shut fine. I think water got in the workings and it wouldn't latch.
