- Published by: Transport Canada \(Canada\)
- Campaign number: 1997104
- Manufacturer's number: 730
- Reported: 1997\-05\-28
- Component: Structure
- Notification type: Safety TC
- Units potentially affected: 246405

## What is wrong

A combination of no bolt torque, high pressure in the strut and a severe duty cycle can create the potential for the liftgate strut attaching bolts to separate.  This could result in injury to persons standing under the liftgate at the time of failure.  Correction: Liftgate struts will be inspected for loose fasteners.  If fasteners are loose, the strut \(and integral bolts\) will be replaced.  If the bolt shows evidence of torque, the bolt will be removed, large washers will be installed and bolt will be torqued to specification.
