GM recalling 820,000 pickup trucks for tailgate issue

WASHINGTON, Mar 02 (Reuters): General Motors is recalling 820,000 newer pickup trucks in North America because tailgates could unlatch and open unexpectedly.
The recall covers 2020 through 2024 model year trucks with power unlatching tailgates because water could leak into the exterior tailgate switch and cause a short circuit while parked.
GM said it is aware of one reported incident of a minor injury and three minor property damage complaints related to the recall issue.
The recall covers about 570,000 trucks in the United States and 250,000 in Canada.
