| The upper tailgate spoiler flew off. this is not an added accessory.this is a heavy body component. there was no impact that caused it. fortunately, to my knowledge, no one behind me was injured.i had no idea it was missing until i discovered it days later. i just went out one morning and noticed it was gone. i have read on line where others have had the same problem. it is dangerous and i feel it needs to be corrected by the manufacturer. the same problem exist on the chevy equinox and perhaps more vehicles from the manufacturer. *tr | |||
