GM recalling trucks for falling-open tailgates (again)

The automaker is expanding a recall of heavy-duty pickups because brand-new examples are still having the same problem

GM is telling owners to ensure the tailgate is fully closed and latched before driving; but it has a fix for the problem, too, a new switch assembly better at keeping water out. Owners of affected vehicles will be notified and asked to bring their truck into the dealer for the free repair.
