Freelander Tailgate closure problems
Hi,
The tailgate on my freelander sport is driving me crazy. It began to need slamming instead of just shutting in order for the rear window to slide back up to its fully closed position. This progressed to having to be lifted at the latch end whilst being slammed and now it won’t slide back up at all.
My independent specialist having played with latch sensors (changed) and I believe changed the latch itself as well as trying to align the latch components very carefully (which did on every occasion improve matters for a short time) has basically given up.
Any ideas?
Is it an alignment problem at the hinge end of the door?
