Tailgates & Liftgates

Understanding the Importance of a Tailgate and Liftgate

The tailgate or liftgate on your vehicle is important in helping you load and unload cargo. If you're driving a truck, you have a tailgate that pulls down to give you access to your truck bed. With the tailgate down, you can also fit longer items in your bed, provided they're secured.

If you have an SUV or a hatchback car, you have a liftgate in the rear. This is the back hatch on your vehicle that lifts up to allow access to the rear cargo area. These days, it's common for lift gates to operate with one-touch or no-touch.

Tailgates and liftgates all contain various moving parts that can wear out. Tailgates and lift gates have locking assemblies that might break or wear out. Another issue you might experience with tailgates and liftgates is when they open or close inconsistently.
