What is the Tailgate Locking Assembly all about?

A tonneau cover can be installed to cover your possessions in the truck bed, and a tailgate locking assembly can be used to lock the tailgate closed. Manufacturers may use a manual key-operated lock, power locking tailgate, or no locking device at all. When a tailgate lock is in place, there are mechanical components that firmly latch the tailgate handle. When the tailgate locking assembly is faulty, the tailgate lock cylinder with either not turn, or will turn without changing the lock position. If a power tailgate locking assembly is faulty, pressing the lock or unlock function will not change the lock position either.

Keep in mind:

  • The tailgate locking assembly can be mechanically operated with a key, opened by pushing a button on the car’s inside, or accessed remotely by an incorporated electronic actuator.

How it's done:

  • The tailgate is lifted and inside cover is removed for access
  • The defective tailgate locking assembly is removed
  • The new tailgate locking assembly is installed
  • The tailgate inside cover is reinstalled
  • The rear tailgate is opened and closed to check locking assembly operation

Our recommendation:

Mechanical or key-operated tailgate locks can and should be lubricated every service interval to prevent corrosion and seizing. The lock should last the lifetime of your vehicle if properly lubricated and cleaned. If your liftgate locking assembly is not working as it should, have one of our expert mechanics inspect and repair it.

What common symptoms indicate you may need to replace the Tailgate Locking Assembly?

  • Tailgate lock cylinder will not turn
  • Tailgate lock does not latch in place when the cylinder is locked
  • Power lock control for the tailgate makes a buzzing sound but doesn’t lock (or unlock) the latch

How important is this service?

As it is not a critical component to your vehicle’s operation, the tailgate locking assembly does not have to be repaired until you are prepared to do it. The contents of your truck box will not be secured until it is fixed.

Mazda CX-9 V6-3.7L - Oil Change - Charlotte, North Carolina
Service call went as expected. He kept in touch and did a good job explaining the work. I thought the serpentine belt needed to be changed but he said no, it’s fine. So this saved me a few dollars. I will ask for him next time.

Mazda CX-9 V6-3.7L - Brakes, Steering and Suspension Inspection - Broomfield, Colorado
I wasn’t appreciative of Scott when he left from helping me. and I want to make it right with him. He found the reason my brakes had gone out, and Mazda honored the extended warranty. Without him deluge rly researching what caused my brakes to fail I might have spent hundreds of dollars, and been without a car over Christmas. I was upset I had to pay the charge to inspect my car and I was super afraid the dealership was going to fund something else to be the problem.. money just kept trickling out. So Scott, thank you for checking every possible thing on my car before you left, waiting for me to talk to Mazda so you heard what they were telling me, and for being a great mechanic that cares.
