## What is wrong

STATION WAGONS ONLY.                                                     THE REMOTE TAILGATE LOCK RELEASE ON THESE VEHICLES IS DESIGNED SO THAT  THE TAILGATE LOCK CAN BE RELEASED ONLY WHEN THE TRANSMISSION IS IN PARK.  DUE TO AN ELECTRICAL WIRING ERROR THE REMOTE RELEASE BUTTON CAN BE  ACTIVATED WHILE THE VEHICLE IS MOVING, ALLOWING THE TAILGATE TO OPEN.  THIS MIGHT RESULT IN INJURIES TO PASSENGERS IN THE REAR COMPARTMENT AREA.
