2013 Toyota Sequoia Limited (108,000 miles) Rear lift gate around latch was not designed correctly to allow moisture out. Our vehicle is in pristine shape other than the rear lift gate latch. By the time you notice it, it-??s too late and unfixable. I-??ve seen these get so bad from doing internet research some people hold the door down with straps because the structural integrity is gone and the lift gate can-??t be latched and could fly open. The ironic thing about this is it-??s obvious Toyota has a problem. Toyota charges $750 - $1000 for a new unpainted lift gate, however NO dealer in the United states can tell you when you-??ll receive it because it-??s on a nationwide backorder. We purchased this from a Non-Toyota dealer September 2022 and did not (or even think I had to look for it) notice this until spring 2023.
