- Manufacturer's number: 03030
- Reported: 2003\-06\-16
- Component: Structure
- Notification type: Safety Mfr

## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, a structural support at the latch attachment in the rear liftgate may be inadequate to retain the latch to the liftgate in certain severe vehicle crash events.  If the liftgate were to open in a vehicle crash, an occupant could be ejected from the vehicle resulting in increased risk of personal injury.  Correction:  Dealer will add structural reinforcements to the liftgate in the area adjoining the latch assembly..
