My tailgate step used to pop out just great. Then I took it through the car was (the whole truck, not just the tailgate). Now it's hit or miss on it popping out, plus the step handle doesn't like to go back in.

Mine is starting to be hit or miss as well. It was good for awhile. Lately it has been working. Will see how it holds up once summer season hits where it will be worked much harder.

Mine popped out the first week...now not at all, gotta dig.

The list will be long at my Ford research event on the 25th.

Just checked mine. Works fine. I haven't used it for probably 2 months.
