I've searched a few different terms for this and couldn't find another post or thread for this ask.

Has anyone's truck tailgate soft open piston failed? My tailgate has ZERO damping, and just fall open with no resistance.

I remember hearing of at least one other failure.

Mine fails to open at all, but I think that is a different problem.

My tailgate damper failed today. I heard a noise when I opened it. Then it wouldn’t close all the way. Service scheduled. I had to remove the damper bolt to get the tailgate to close…
