    Rear tailgate latch broken

    In case anyone's interested, once I figured out how to get the rear trim panel off, it was a 10 second fix. There's a little bar thingy that moves up and down when the door locks and unlocks.

    Rear tailgate latch broken

    Help! I have a 98 Sport, and the door handle for the tailgate seems to have broken. There is no resistance on it when I pull on it, and obviously it doesn't open the tailgate. The lock seems to be working fine...I also can't open the rear window. Is there a way I can release this latch from...

    Just wanted to stop by and say hi. I just bought a '98 Sport and absolutely love it. I've been reading this message board for a few days now, and everyone seems so willing to help out.
