2021 1500 LTZ tail gate hard to close


Recommended Posts

I have the new mulit flex tailgate on my 21 1500 LTZ Crew Cab with button to open it from the cab or remote.   It doesn't have the auto close feature though.   When I close it feels stiff like I am fighting against motor?  Is this normal?  Am I just fighting again the soft open mechanism that keeps it from slamming down when opened?

 

Thanks

Mine is the same, Its just a heavy tail gate. I have also found when the small inside part is down you have to hold down on the outer gate to close it before closing the entire gate if not its a bear to close.

Thanks @WeGone glad it just isn't me...  I am hoping I don't destroy this tailgate and hit the top button with the towing ball installed.   Can't believe they didn't have some sort of senor on this from the factory to prevent this.
