What is wrong

The optional remote entry module may have a fault which causes random actuation of interior lamps, door locks, and/or tailgate release. This actuation may occur while the vehicle is in use or unattended.

The risk

If the tailgate release actuates, the tailgate will open.unrestrained passengers in the rear seat area could fall out of the vehiclewhile the car is in motion, and receive serious injuries.

The fix

Replace the remote entry module with a newly revised module to prevent random actuation.
