    Surely somebody makes a suitable quality replacement injector that won’t force my family into rice and beans for a month or two? I’m retrired w/4 kids, youngest is 10, living at home.

    Tailgate will not open

    To whom it may concern, Disconnecting the battery did I the trick... ...for now. I made sure it wasn’t a one-time thing by opening the hatch 3 X. Until next time... Tony
